Due Date and new pictures! (see below) I can't figure out how to put them in a different spot.

So todays is officially my due date. Its so strange to think that I could possibly still be pregnant! I would be HUGE! Anyway this is when we start counting Bryce's development by his "adjusted age". For example tomorrow he will be 1 day old adjusted.

Anyway so its been 8 days since we came home from the NICU. The first night home was pretty interesting. Bryce was a little confused with his days and nights. He woke up at 9 PM and didn't go back to sleep until 8 AM the next day. But I didn't mind because he's so damn cute! Other than that though he has been truly a joy to have home! He is such a good boy. He only cries when he's hungry. He plays when he is awake. I am so happy having him home! Faythe and Nicole have been wonderful with him! Faythe is so good about washing her hands and using GermX before touching Bryce. We don;t even have to tell her to do it she just does. As a matter of fact she tells everyone that comes to my house that they have to wash and Germ X and she shows them how to do it. Shes so funny! On a bad note though she did wake up yesterday morning with a fever and not feeling good so I am a little in panic mode right now praying the baby doesn't catch it. Thankfully Nenen was willing to take Faythe for me and let her stay at her house to keep her from the baby as much as possible, and Faythe didn't mind going there because she knew she'd get spoiled the whole time right Nen? So other than that things have been wonderful I love having him home and hopefully now I can get my family put back together... We'll see! Thanks to everyone who has and is praying for he obviously made it through because of it!
Bryce came home 4lbs. 12oz. and as of yesterday when the nurse came he is 5lbs. 4oz. He's getting so fat so fast! He is too cute! The nurse comes 2 times a week and we go to pedi 1 time a week. We also saw Dr. McCabe on Monday and he said his eyes look good, we will now just have to follow up with Dr Geis. So as for now thats about it! Just trying to get used to having a baby in the house!
