Mom's Home!

Today was a great day. I am starting to get my energy back. We spent alot of time with Ethan today. He is up to eating 1 oz every 3 hours. He is taking it from the bottle each time. Jakob is back home with us. He had a great time at Grandpa & Grandma's. They looked pretty tired when they brought him home tonight. Last night he had them up every 1/2 hour. They are looking forward to more sleep tonight. Needless to say I will get much less. I am so glad to have him home though. We are already are playing toys and they are all over the house. This picture was taken last week as he is posing with his new slippers.Ethan had a great day today.

Papa returned back from out of town, so Nana & Papa came to visit today.
Rick and I spent some great time with Ethan.



I want to get back to play with Jakob. We will update more tomorrow after spending more time with Ethan and Jakob too. Hoping to get Jakob to the hospital again. We will see. You know his attention span is about 0, however he would love all the plugs in the nursery!!

Thanks again for all your prayers. Our God is amazing.

All our love,

Rick, Mandi, Jakob & Ethan

So Ethan is totally your twin...what color is his hair? His face is so much like yours!!

Obviously, I didn't make it again today. I have a gift and meal so we can touch base once you are rested up and I will bring it over.

Jakob is so happy to be home. Yes, we are very tired but we had so much fun. He has so much love to share and we loved every minute of it. Hope to see Ethan again tomorrow.
Love you all,

Congratulations on Ethan's birth. What a darling little baby. And he's making such good progress too. We were also delighted to see Jakob. Grandma Beth sent us an email to let us know about Ethan's arrival and we confirmed the info. with Marge Faber today. Our hearts are rejoicing with you! Congrats!
