SUPERMAN HE IS!

Well we cannot believe it, but tonight we learned Paxton gets to come home tomorrow! Now I can handle a one day waiting period any day! We were so thrilled and asked a million times, "Are you sure?" Resounding yeses all around. It was a med issue that was giving Paxton fever, pain, and other non-desirable things. Now that we have that figured out, just look at our happy angel! Do you think he knows he's coming home tomorrow? And just look at those balloons in celebration! Oh I so hope we don't jinx it! But we had to share our excitement with all of you. I have never gotten as many smiles as I did tonight, and not just on camera, but at all! Yay for Superman! After 121 Days in the NICU, 17 weeks to the day, our SUPER Hero gets to come home! We are so thrilled. Ecstatic. SOOOOO GRATEFUL! Thank you all so much for your love and prayers and support. And I better not be posting again tomorrow with any other news! That means it happened and we are busy learning the ropes! Love you all! And so much thanks.






HOORAY!

Beautiful, beautiful, Paxton boy. What a PRECIOUS child. Those smiles are priceless. I just love it. Lots of kisses and cuddles and loves and hugs and family interaction for him 24/7 now. How exciting. I wish you all the best in this next phase of home adjustment. My thoughts and prayers are with you. May all go as well as it possibly can. Love you so so much!!!
