2008 NICU Reunion!!!

We went to the NICU reunion in April and it was pretty packed! Didn't see any of the Nurses that took care of him tho, I guess it was a busy in the NICU that day, and ones that didn't work probably didn't want to come in on their off days! Saw a few twins and triplets! Lots of the parents we saw I recognized, either from our 7 week stay at the NICU or from work when they were on bedrest! We also made a quilt square for the reunion quilt that will be posted on the wall outside the NICU! It should be up soon!





Jr. and I posing for Daddy!




We put him on the display isolette that he lived in for the first 4 1/2 weeks of his life! He weighed 2lbs 12ozs! My we have come a long way!!!! What a miracle! I'm am so thankful that he is so healthy with no long term effects from being a 28 weeker!! I thank God for my Son!!
The clown was worried she was going to scare him, but he did pretty good! As you can see he didn't smile, but he didn't cry either! He kept reaching for her nose, he wanted to grab it so bad it was hilarious!

Derrick Sr. was being a good sport and let the clown put her hat on him!

They had a fun band for all the kids and we put Jr. on the table so he could "dance". Here is a hat he got at the craft table. Grandma Clara is holding him! Isn't that a cute face!
