This sign was lying on floor in front of my bedroom door this morning:
It’s because this guy has moved in (he is so cute, he transcends mommy’s camera mishap):
His name is Archie, and he had a rough start:
But, he was never alone. The kids visited, and his daddy and I stayed by his side whenever we could. A lot of people lifted him up in prayer (his last night on oxygen featured humidity, which steamed up his little head dome!):
Archie was finally released from the NICU and back to mama’s room with a clean bill of health:
Thanks to all of you out there for cheering our little man through his first few days.
That last photo is just precious — little Archie all snug in his bed. I love the sign on the bedroom as well. What a joyful thing to have him home with his loving family!

I have no words for the beauty that is your new man-child, or for the joy I feel that all is well and you are home. (((((HUGS)))))

Yea for Archie, so glad he has finally got to go to your room and then to home.
He is gorgeous and I wish you all the best luck, sure his big brothers and sisters will dote on him and he will never knew what hit him.

The sight of little Archie has brought me out of lurkdom as well. I just started reading your blog in the middle of the crisis and have joined in praying for your little guy, who is just…perfect. Blessings to you all!
