Well, I'm a little behind with this update. Larkin has been home for 2 weeks! It has been a great 2 weeks having our little man with us. Joe and I agree that we'd rather have sleepless nights with him here over a quiet house without him, so while we were able to get some sleep the week he was in the NICU we are thrilled to have him home.
Our first two nights were quite an adjustment as Larkin didn't know night from day as the NICU was constant 24 hours a day. He heard the beeping of machines, nurses chatting about life, and babies crying all day and night. He now seems to be getting on a better schedule of sleeping during the night and only wakes up when he's hungry which is every 2-4 hours.
We had a welcome home party with our family. Many of them had not gotten to meet Larkin since he left for the NICU shortly after birth. It was so sweet to see everyone oooh and aaah over him and I hope he can tell how much he's loved! We continue to thank God for taking care of Larkin and healing his little body! He truly is a blessing.
yay, im so glad yall are doing well. i have been thinking about you. luke still doenst have his nights down either. thats so fun that yall had a welcome home party and you look great!
