We really enjoyed our first weekend home together as a family. Mason is in love with her baby brother. She likes to sit next to him and giggle when he makes noises. She is especially eager to help give him a bottle or to let us know when he is crying. Blake is continuing to do remarkably well. He's adjusting famously to his (chaotic) life at home, and, like his mom, doesn't seem to miss the beeps of the hospital monitors or nurses and doctors coming in every hour. He is eating great, and had his first pediatrician appointment today - he has grown 2 inches (now 20") and has gained a pound (now 6 lbs. 5 oz.) since birth. Tomorrow we go for his first follow up with his Austin cardiologist to check on the state of his heart.

We are so glad all of you are together at last and even home to boot. Blake is growing stronger and Mason as his bedside nurse. You can tell that she loves him so much. I can't wait to see all of you again. We miss all of you.

Great stuff Blake. Keep up the good work.
