Ahhhhhhhhh.....so good to be home.  It's 9am and everyone is still sleeping but me.  Cody is softly snoring on a queen size bed mattress that we pulled into our living room and made up for him.  Casey was up til midnight last night (we didn't get home from the hospital til 10:30pm).  We let him stay up to spend time with him - he had gone 2 days without really seeing much of us and was confused by Cody's crying and pain when we got home.

I slept on the couch next to Cody and he didn't move and inch all night.  I gave him his pain med every 5 hours - and other than a teaspoon full of applesauce with his med - he was totally conked out.

And so we begin the healing process.  He can't use the tube for a week - we go in Thursday to learn how.  Til then we lay low and let that wound site become less tender. 

All ofr now - he's starting to stir.

with love,
