A Wonderful Week!

This past week has been wonderful (and stressful)! Avery came home last Friday. She passed all her tests and the docs let her go. My guess is that they were so tired of her crying and screaming, they said please take her! Here are a few pictures of our first couple of days at home!


Leaving the Hospital. We were there for 45 days!

Ave loves to sleep!

Football hold with Daddy! (I love the little chicken legs)

Cuddling with mom!

Loving spa time!

Also this past week, Josh got braces!

The smiling face I will wake up to for the next 18 months. Josh smiled extra big for me to see all the metal. Love ya hun! Also this week, Josh has 9 finals...
