Nixon is HOME!!

Today was the best day ever!! Nixon spent the night in the hospital with his parents hooked up to a monitor so they could be tested on how well they will do with him home. At first they just wanted him to use the monitor for a month but now they have suggested he use if for 2 months. He was given the car seat test where he sits in his car seat for 90 minutes with his monitors on to check his vital signs. He passed so he was allowed to come home. We are so glad to have him home and he is doing really well. He eats and sleeps and just looks around. He is still pretty spitty but that is normal with the acid reflux that he has. He takes medicine every day for that to help with the spitting stuff. He is doing really well and mom and dad are sooooo glad to have him home. Sid flew in today and so we will spend the next few days helping them in any way we can. Check Kandis's blog to see updated photos and her point of view! Kandis is doing great and feeling better every day. Nic needs to get some sleep so he can get back to work and school rested and ready to go!! We are so grateful for a wonderful new grandson and love to see what good parents Nic and Kandis are becoming.

What a relief having Nic-son home. What are they going to name there next? if it is a girl? Kan-girl? By the way, what is Sid going to do? Nixon doesn't ahve any teeth to examine. I can't believe the car seat test ordeal is as intensive as in Calif. Even 30 years ago it was a major accomplishment just to get the kid properly strapped in. How did we EVER survive before seat belts.
