Whew! It's been a very full week! Joseph Alexander entered this world, last Saturday, April 17, at 5:03 pm. We already love him to pieces. He had a rough start, as he was in the NICU the entire hospital stay. But thank God he is a healthy (and HUNGRY!) boy! They admitted him to the NICU due to a "blue" spell he had and a heart murmur they heard. They monitored him until we left the hospital, on Monday April 19, and we are happy to report, the murmur and "blue" spell were just transitional things that didn't amount to anything.
We are so happy to be at home, and able to hold him and love him, and have him in our family. Here are a few pictures from his first week!
Finally able to leave the NICU and go home!
