Home At Last

Friday, June 27Th Reagan finally came home. The movers also came that day so we went to Nana and Papa's house. I have to say it has been a blessing to have the extra support taking care of baby Reagan. She is definitely getting spoiled with lots of hugs and kisses. She was 6 pounds at the doctors on Saturday. We will go back for another weight check this Saturday. Reagan has been doing very well, sleeping most of the night and eating like a pig. She came home with a heart monitor and standby oxygen. She has had a few episodes while eating, turning a little dusky, and I had to use the oxygen once. Each day I pray Reagan will get stronger and outgrow her reflux problems. It is such a blessing to be home but a little scary too.
I continue to count my blessings, God has been so good to me. I am finally living my dream with having my family at home together. I feel so blessed to have made it this far with so little complications for Reagan. God is so good and has answered so many prayers the past 4 months. Reagan is living proof of our miraculous Father.
We went to the eye doctor today and her eyes continue to get better each visit. The doctor thinks Reagan may be nearsighted so we will recheck her eyes in three months. Nearsightedness we can handle! We stopped by the NICU at Baptist while we were there. It was nice to finally be a graduate returning to show her progress and not a parent wondering if their child would ever get that big.
Thanks a million to all our supporters. These past 4 months would not have been the same without your continued thoughtfulness. May God Bless!
Love,
Amy, Robert, and Reagan

I rejoice to hear that Reagan is finally home. I recall the feeling of anxiety and yet peace I experienced when my grandson was born 3 months premature weighing a whopping (compared to Raegan) 2 lbs 7oz. When he finally came home just beffore Thanksgiving 2005, our family had the best Thanksgiving ever.

Our church, Bethlehem Wesleyan in Snow Camp will praise God for His mercy and love. We have continued to remember Reagan in our prayers and now will rejoice with you, now that Reagan is home.
