Liam comes home and Christmas!


Well it has been a crazy two weeks but Liam is finally home!! He was discharged Monday afternoon and we are all so happy! Oddly enough he came home on the day of my scheduled C section so he must of had it in his head that the 11th was the day. We just feel so blessed that he had such great medical staff taking care of him. We met so many wonderful people and can't thank them enough for taking care of our little buddy.



Here they are today, I took these two pictures before I took them to there two week check up.

Here are all three kids getting ready for bed.
I like this picture because you can see how much bigger Liam is then Lilly.

A cute close up of there faces.

This was there first time being back together since they were inside of me. As you can see they were very hungry!

Here they are when we brought them home.

Barrick meeting Liam for the first time. Barrick wasn't aloud to go in the NICU with the H1N1 so he didn't meet him until he was discharged. It was cute when we brought Liam out Barrick finally understood what we had been telling him for nine months, and he immediately said "two babies" and started laughing.
Liam being unhooked from all of the monitors.
Barrick after playing in the snow with dad.
A cute close up of our little Lilly.

I realized we don't have many pictures of Scotty and I with the babies so here are some of us with Lilly when we were going home.



We also missed our Christmas post, which Christmas was so amazing! I was so grateful that I was able to be home with Scotty and Barrick.

Christmas Eve we spent with our the friends the Caffees and the Bahrs, and it was such a fun night!! We had a yummy dinner and fun night just enjoying each others company.

Here are the kids doing story of Christmas.

Here they all are in there new Christmas pjs.


Here is Barrick giving Jackson kisses.


Here is our whole family in our Christmas PJS.

Here is both Scotty and I with our little buddy on Christmas!


Christmas night we went to Virginia to Aunt Trina and Uncle Stuart's house and we had such a fun night! We love spending time with them and had yummy food and great company! Here is Barrick with a pair of glasses that he found at there house!

Sorry, Christmas was out of order, but Christmas morning was so fun Barrick was spoiled with lots of gifts and we had so much fun playing and opening presents! Here is Barrick's pancakes that Scotty made for him.


Here is Barrick on his new bike that Gma and Gpa Nelson gave him.

LOVE the photos. You really have adorable children. My 4yo wants to go to your "house, sleep there and play with that boy and him toys and look at those babies."

I cannot believe how good you looked just before having the twins in your Christmas jammies. That is how I feel right now and I still have a long time to go.

I'm so glad you posted more pictures! I've been dying to see more of those cute little babes. I can't believe how much bigger Liam is than Lilly, she looks especially tiny in her little onesie. I love their matching brown and green outfits. I think it's so cute that Barrick said, "oh, TWO babies" when he saw Liam- I can just see the light bulb go on when he realized that there was ANOTHER one coming home! I'm glad you guys got to celebrate Christmas together and go see Stu and Trina- it's so nice that you are close to them! We miss you guys and we are keeping our fingers crossed that we will end up somewhere close to you in the next couple of years.
