In nuh...step down that is

Paw Paw finally got to hold his grandson. We were all crying at some point :)


We're back in step down :) Praise God! He still has not had any weird heartbeats and he is breathing beautifully! And.......Mom got him back on the breast milk without having to make a scene. He is only having a litre of oxygen, an hour, and his nurse plans to ween him off throughout the night. Also, tomorrow he will be getting his drainage tube removed. They said "hopefully" he will be going home in 2-3 days". The meaning of "hopefully", around here, means probably but not likely! Lets hope that hopefully means hopefully this time!

I got to hold him tonight and finally cry tears of joy! Every time I have cried while holding him before was because I honestly didn't know when I would get to hold him again or even if I'd get to hold him again. He's doing so well now and I am full of joy. I have finally met the love of my life :) He has completely stolen my heart. A child puts everything into perspective and I can finally see what is truly important. Matthew truly is a gift and I am amazed at the strength of this little boy. It's hard to believe that he will be a month old in a few days.

Psalm 68:6

Thanks so much for the prayers. We love you all so much. Switch is one step closer to coming to visit everyone :)

Much Love,

Shelley & Blake
