Our Homecoming

The two of us were very pleased with the care we received at the hospital-- kind NICU nurses, knowledgeable doctors, helpful lactation consultants, and necessary painkillers ;). And yet, it was such a glorious feeling to hear, after 5 1/2 days in the hospital, that we were finally headed home to begin our adventures as a family of four. While we were finishing paperwork and final checkups at the hospital, Grammy was busy preparing our home for Jaden and Cody's arrival.

On Wednesday afternoon (June 6th), the hospital employees cut off our security bands, and we were headed out the door. The nurses double-checked our carseats and sent us on our way. What a strange, scary, and exciting feeling it was to be alone with our 2 precious boys, knowing that they were now fully under our care. Neither boy made a peep the whole way home.

We all smiled at seeing Grammy's hard work on the welcome home sign. What a fun thing to see while pulling into our cul-de-sac! Thanks, Grammy!

The boys, now fully tuckered out, posed for their first of many pictures in the Schleicher home. (Jaden-left & Cody right) We love you, boys. Welcome Home!!
