Thankful

How lucky are we????? These pictures are right after Kade got his breathing tube taken out and also on the day of his first bath.
I don't really know why but for some reason I am a little emotional right now...Decided to write it all down. Or try anyways. Cody's Dad was in town this weekend and showed me some pics of the first time we ever got to hold our little precious man. It brought back so many memories. Kade was born at 2:30am or so on Sunday morning and we didn't officially get to hold him until Wednesday afternoon after he got his breathing tube taken out. We were SOOOOOOOOOOOO excited. So many emotions going through my mind. As I was going through these pictures I also came across a video of his very first cry that we could actually hear. All the rest of the cries we could see but because of the breathing tube could never hear. It was seriously the most amazing moment ever. I remember it like it was yesterday....i left the room for a little bit to pump...in ICU there is a "pumping room" I came back to find that they had just taken out his breathing tube. Seriously I just started bawling and had to leave the room. It was definately a little bit scary not knowing how he would do breathing all on his own. He pulled through with flying colors, thank goodness. Having Kade has shown us a true miracle right in front of us. We are so lucky and thankful to have him in our lives to brighten up our days. I just was made aware today again of how thankful we need to be for our little or maybe in some cases not so little bundles of joy. Sorry for the emotional post but looking through the pictures brought back so many emotions and so much love for those first moments...Love my little miracle
