I was discharged from the hospital on Wednesday afternoon. Chance, however, had to stay in the hospital for phototherapy for his jaundice. We feel blessed that the hospital allowed us to stay in our own room to take care of Chance while he got the treatment. It was so heartbreaking to not be able to hold him whenever he whimpered and only have him out for 30min to feed. He was particularly unhappy about the blindfolds over his eyes. He's such a curious little guy and loves just looking around. They kept rechecking his bilirubin to find out when we would be able to bring him home. Finally, we got some good results Thursday night and we were all able to come home. We were SO thankful to finally leave the hospital! Chance looked extra cute in his going home outfit! (Thanks Jena for the truly adorable hat!)
My life changed when I walked into a theatre arts class my freshman year of high school. That is where I first met my future husband! On March 6, 2004 I married my soul mate. Jon is the most wonderful husband in the world and I'm thankful for him every day!
One of the biggest desires of our heart was to be parents. After years of trying to have a baby and struggles with fertility treatments we were blessed with a pregnancy. Those were words my heart had ached to utter for so long. On March 15, 2010 God brought into our lives a precious baby boy. Chance is everything I have hoped, dreamed and prayed for. Praise God for such extraordinary miracles!
During this time God also chose to relocate us from our home in Texas to Northern Virginia. We miss our friends and family, but are thankful for the wonderful people we've met here in Virginia. We feel so blessed and want to share this new chapter in our lives with the people we love!
