Well, it’s here. Our last night of freedom, sleep and sanity… It feels so funny saying that because right now I feel like I have none of those things. :) But, it’s all good. Rhys is coming home tomorrow unless something goes wrong. We’re both a bit scared because we’ve seen it happen more than once to other parents. On the day they are to go home something happens and they end up staying another week or two…

Rhys is at 6 pounds 3.2 ounces. He passed his hearing test with flying colors on the first try! His grade 3 brain bleed has completely been absorbed and healed (not to say that there is no damage, but at least we know it won’t be getting worse). He’s eye tests have all come back positive. The only disappointing thing is his need to come home on oxygen. That’s kind of a bummer, but it is pretty typical for preemies.

Today, Heidi had her Baby Shower. It was great! Most of the family showed up. Her sister couldn’t make it because she was sick, which is really terrible since she was one of the sisters putting it together. She decided it best to not spread germs around just before Rhys came home. Her stepmom couldn’t make it because she was busy doing something else… :/ Anyway, all-in-all a good time was had and everyone got along just fine. We got some real nice gifts from our closest friends and Heidi got to have the people who are closest to her all in one room for once. :) She said she enjoyed that the most.

When we got home from the hospital tonight, we found that K-Dawg decided to throw a party of her own. I swear I’m beginning to think the K in K-Dawg stands for Kaegogi. ;) Here’s some pics: 1, 2, 3. Those are bits of peppers, lettuce, drink cups, lunch meats, cake, and other half-eaten party leftovers which are more of party *favors* for puppers.

Lastly I want to share with you the worst bit of marketing I’ve seen yet. Perhaps it won’t strike you as wrong… To me, there are 100 better ways to label your product… But that’s just me. :) Rashstick & Rashspray
