Will Comes Home!

Today Will was cleared to come home with us!!!! After about 4.5 days, he gained enough weight to finally leave the hospital. It’s been a wonderful experience so far and keeps getting better. He’s already checked out his bouncer and pack and play. For the most part he’s slept. Not sure why he wasn’t interested in a tour of his room though … Everything is going well and I put a few pictures up.

Can I Go Home?

Well we thought we were all going home today, but the doctors want Will to stay at the hospital another day. He is doing great, but they want him to put on a little more weight and stay under the photo therapy lamp for another day. So tomorrow we should have the welcome home celebration! We have moved up to a hotel room at the hospital and go see Will and feed him every 2 hours. I will hopefully put some more pictures up tomorrow night.

Update

Everything is still going well at the hospital. We will be able to come home tomorrow morning and can’t wait. Will has a little jaundice, so he is spending the day under photo therapy, and we only get to see him every few hours. He’s eating well and definitely prefers to be held instead of being left alone in the basket. Thanks for all the comments! I put a few more pictures on.

It's a Boy!

William Michael McComas was born yesterday, August 12th, at 6:57pm. He weighed 6 lbs and was 18.5 inches. Both Mom and Will are doing great! Will wasn’t due until September 6th, but a couple of complications arose and we surprisingly had him last night by c-section. At almost 37 weeks, he is a great size and was able to spend the night with us in the room. Chrissy is doing great and will be in the hospital until tuesday or wednesday. I’ve posted a few of the pictures we’ve taken so far. We’ll post more when we get some time later this week. It’s been great seeing everyone who’s visited so far and we’re so happy and blessed to have Will join our family.
