For real.....
We made it home....
Charity is now asleep in bed, with food hooked up to her g-tube set to run all night. It took us about an hour to figure out how to give her meds, hook up the milk and get her to sleep, but we did it! No telling how the night will go, but we are sure grateful to have her home...
We spent the day getting last minute instructions, picking up prescriptions, playing in the playroom one last time, and of course saying goodbye to our friends. We saved our visit to the ICU where Charity spent the majority of her stay, for the last. Some of us (won't mention any names) got a little emotional. So amazing to walk through the hall remembering where we have come from, and realize that it is indeed a miracle that we get to take her home.
She was happy to ride in the car and listen to music, and happy to get home and see her toys. Now, we are happy that it is bed time :) How good God is to allow us to be together tonight as a family...once again.

YAY YAY YAY! Together again at last! I'm sure you feel like changing your blog name to "house overflowing with joy" after everything you all have been through!
It sounds like you're on a g-tube pump. Is that continuous 24 hrs a day, or just overnight? I will continue praying for you as you make this adjustment to being home! :)

How wonderful to finally have your little girl home again! I've been following along since shortly after she landed in the hospital and am so thankful that God answered our prayers with a resounding YES.

Hi - this is Sue Peterson, Mackenzie's mom from the PICU. Your mom gave me the link to your blog and I was happy to see when I logged on that Charity has got to go home! I wish you an uneventful and healthy time of it! Thank you again for your kindness while you were here - please tell your mom that my sister is looking into the photo printer and I should have one by this weekend.

SO SO SO happy you guys are home! A little birdy told me when you were on the way out of the hospital and I got a little teary! :) I hope you all enjoy a nice LONG stay at home now with NO medical problems for miss Charity! In case you missed it, we got new pictures of Kellsey (the little one we're in the process of adopting). They are a couple posts down on my blog! :)
