coming home July 2nd

We got to come home Saturday and we were super excited. It was like bringing him home for the first time :) and like the first time he had a themed shirt ready to wear for the special day. We had his room ready and everything cleaned and perfect! The only thing scary was giving all the meds and watching out for any signs that would get us back in the hospital. Being in the hospital is having a nurse around 24/7. I have to say I got kind of spoiled being there and them bringing me any and everything I needed. The only hard part is giving meds becasue at 6 months he has learned how to refuse them and spit it out or hold his mouth shut! ha ha ha

Back to reality however, is easier than we thought. He is super happy still and is having NO signs of the chemo. We know this will not last and there will be hard rounds, but the first few are easy and babies handle them well. For the first 72 hours after chemo we have to change him with gloves and be careful with the pee and poop because the chemo comes out and it is toxic to the rest of us. He is starting to try and roll again (he has been only on his back for a month so he is re-learning tummy-time and everything) and is doing amazing. We also today, July 4th, started baby food :) He did really well and I think he will be a good eater. We can only feed him on good days and not days he is sick so the process might be a little longer than ususal.
