Sweet Owen is HOME!
We are finally home. After 7 weeks in the NICU, we are HOME! I still can't believe it. After driving back and forth 30 minutes each way every single day during that time, it is so strange to just be able to stay home with our sweet Owen. The first week that he was home was a little rough. He has his nights and days completely flip-flopped and would cry all night long in his bed. I decided that I had to switch mine too for a while in order to keep my sanity. He is still on his oxygen and has an apnea monitor on at all times. We are hoping he will wean off of the oxygen soon and have one less attachment! He is starting to get very mad at his nasal cannula and pulls it out all of the time. So really he is already weaning himself. He is quite feisty! He has been through a lot, bless his heart. It is getting easier and easier every day as we get our routine down. Jordan is now off for a month!! We are packing for our move in less than TWO weeks to Knoxville! Jordan will finish up his medical school clinicals there. We are so excited to move back closer to family. We definitely need the help! So, between Owen coming home and preparing for our move, we are super busy! We will miss our friends in Memphis, but as for the city- we are SO ready to leave it behind. East Tennessee here we come!!! :)
