NICU Day 68 - Discharged!

Day 68.  The last day in the NICU is finally here.  The doctor finally saw Andrew around noon today and gave him the green light.  We left the hospital around 4:30 with our precious 5 lb 5 oz cargo...



and all made it home safe and sound around 5.   The paparazzi was there to greet us...



Home, Sweet Home!



So far the big guy is taking it all in stride.



He has already had two dinners, a bath, and a nap tonight.



There are a few more pictures in the NICU album, but today's pictures are in a new album.

Thanks again to everyone for their support and encouragement (and all the wonderful food).  We couldn't have made it without you.

Check back here for regular updates - but not daily updates.  For the really adventurous reader, I think you can even subscribe to the blog, using this link or the Atom link at the bottom of the page, so you can receive the posts right in your inbox or news reader.

It was definitely a good day.  That is all.
