Mommy & Carter Come Home!!

Well, after 4 long days in the hospital, Carter & Mommy were discharged and got to come home! Heidi is still having some lingering effects from the epidural, but is recovering nicely...and the drugs aren't too bad either!
But, before we left Wilford Hall, we had to get Carter all dressed up to come home. We brought a newborn outfit and it positively swallowed him up!

Then for the first time in MONTHS, I managed to get Heidi to pose for a picture. Here she is sharing a loving moment with our youngest son before we start the Great Escape.


Mike had the 'privilege' of getting Carter into his new car seat. You can tell he reacted well to it...

But, after a while he calmed down.

And was asleep by the time we put him in the van.

It was finally around 3:30 when we got home and our little angel slept for another hour...it was another day of changes in his world!


Ryan is still incredibly sweet to his baby brother. When we got home I made the comment that Carter was cold and that's why he was fussing. Ryan ran upstairs and brought down his blankets from his bed to share. Anyone who knows Ryan (and the things Ryan likes) can really appreciate what a BIG deal this really was. Ryan was kind enough to share until bedtime...then he needed them back to fall asleep. Sibling love does, in fact, have boundaries!!

Ryan is the best biggest brother ever! Carter is a lucky little guy...
