Memphis has been home for 2 days and doing great! We think he enjoys being home, up and out of his hospital bed. He is quickly falling into a normal baby routine of playing, eating, and nap time. It is very different bringing home a four month old compared to a newborn. All those months where you are supposed to be learning all the ins and outs of your baby and bonding have been missed. It is ok though, we are just going to have to catch up is all; spend some extra time bonding. Memphis came home on two monitors, a saturation monitor and a apnea monitor. He also came home with a feeding pump. There is a lot to keep up with but mom and dad are getting the hang of things pretty quick.
Memphis' brother and sister have been out of town this weekend and have not yet seen him home. They will be back this afternoon. In a few short hours the entire family will for the first time be whole.
Memphis is working very hard to catch up to where he should be developmentally. He isn't doing everything a four month old baby should be such as: laughing, copying movements and facial expressions, babbling, copying sounds, reaching for toys, but has mastered all the two month old mile stones and learning quickly. Hopefully by the time Memphis is a year he will be all caught up.
