Isaac's Home!

and we're pretty sure we can't part with the boy ever again!! He's been so great to have home again and has even started fits of psuedo-crawling... he's moving somehow, but I can't claim it's "crawling" so much as inching his body along the floor like a sea creature might on the ocean floor!

He's happy to be in his own bed and with his mommy & daddy again!

Jonah remains pretty stable. His feedings continue to go up and he's still tolerating them well. He gets a sponge bath today from us - Cindy is always scared for the bathtime b/c she's worried he'll get so cold. and he will get cold - but hopefully it will be okay.

Still on the CPAP - will be for a while. Same story, different kid.

other than that - everything else in our life feels like a chore to put any energy or effort into besides our boys - must mean we're firmly entrenched in "crisis" mode or something...

We did the math of our transitional lifestyle this weekend & found that in the past 2.5 years
7 Jobs
5 homes in 2 states
2 babies, 2 hospitals, 2 extended hospital stays


that's a lot going on! We're very interested in obtaining some stability - if you see any on freecycle or in the bargain corner please let us know, we can't afford much but we'll take what we can!

But we are eating, we are paying our bills, we are wearing clothes & our kids are awesome and doing great - praise God!

Also, Isaac whistles now - inadvertently by breathing in and out of his mouth really fast... but he's doing it more often so I think he's actually trying!





I love my birthday present from great-grandma Nieuwstraten!!


I'm glad I'm home... with all my own toys!
