Home sweet home....depot!

It's true! We spent last weekend (Feb. 25-26) packing up and preparing to leave the hospital. The official orders were made Monday morning, and we left that afternoon. The only slight hiccup came when his nurse told us that insurance wasn't approving his medicine (caffeine to keep him from sleeping too deeply and forgetting to breath), and that a 20 day supply would cost us over $1600! Luckily, after a phone call to the insurance company, we only had to pay a $10 copay.

The doctors wanted us to break up the trip so Caden wouldn't have to spend 16 hours straight in a car. We spent a couple nights in Chicago visiting family, a couple nights in KC visiting friends, and a couple nights in Grafton, NE visiting more family before arriving home early this morning (Sunday the 4th). Caden did very well in the car, and has been eating even more than he was in the hospital. He wakes up to eat every 2-4 hours, and spends the rest of his time sleeping.

We know many of you would like to see him (and we would like to show him off), but we need a couple days to get settled in before we accept company. We are still planning to have an open house, and will work on setting a date for that ASAP!
