Oh baby! You're so mine!

Yay, we're free. Free from the hospital! Ethan got released today. He is healthy and strong. We can breathe easy now. We get to stick around for awhile here in Texas, but find we don't mind so much. We have to say we love the people here in Texas. They are so friendly especially our nurses. Ethan was a favorite with the nurses since he is so cute and alert. We learned a new word y'all guys. We will be incorporating it into our new vocabulary.

Thanks for all of the congrats. We feel so blessed. There have been so many miracles along the way. This experience has strengthened our testimony and assured us of the great love that Heavenly Father has for us.

Now for what you all have been waiting for. More Pictures!


A random picture to show our alert guy.


Ethan's first and maybe only dog. A lady was making balloon animals at a restaurant and I couldn't resist getting him one. Sadly he never got to see it, since you can't bring balloons in the NICU.


His first real outfit and look he is free of cords. Such a happy sight.


Our little family. Our first picture once we were free on the hospital. Yay!


The proud grandparents. Grandpa & Grandma Carlson went through a lot also to see this grandson. Their flight was delayed by several hours and then finally cancelled. So they rented a car and drove through pouring rain to get here to meet Ethan. We sure do love them.
