Home again Home again....

Well, we made it home from Oklahoma in one piece (us and the furniture). The new route was wonderful and we plan on taking it again the next time we go to see Grandma. We were able to spend most of Sunday afternoon with my grandmother and she spent a lot of it reading to Emma (I have pictures that I will post later). We left right before dinner and hit the road. We stayed at a really nice little hotel called the Honeysuckle Inn, and got up and headed back out after a quick breakfast. We were able to make it back to Kentucky, get unloaded and visit with family before we pulled in our driveway at 8:30. It was wonderful to be home!!!!

I have some great news!!!!! Jody was able to bring the babies home yesterday! She was able to start breastfeeding them on Saturday and they did really well, so on Monday, she spent the night with them in her room. They didn't eat as well, and even lost a little bit of weight overnight, but they were allowed to finally go home. Zoe was back up to her birth weight and Zane was just a couple of oz. shy of his. Not bad for preemies! I would love to post some pictures of them, but since I am sick, I can't go anywhere near them! I am hoping that by the week-end I am better, but I may wait till next week, just to be sure. Please keep them in your prayers, and Jody as well as she is still recovering from her surgery and also has a seven and a five year old to take care of.

Glad you all made it back ok. I'm sorry you are feeling so yucky. No fun.

Can't wait to see more pics of Zane and Zoe when you get to see them. I know you'll go first chance you get.

See you in a few hours!
