1st Days Home



Boys oh Boys! What a great last few days. Ashley was welcomed home with some sweet signs taped on to the house, which was a nice welcoming for her and the boys. The signs said “it’s a boy, welcome home Braylon Michael Howland and Kaden Darold Howland.” They were from Ash’s family. The boys and I took Ashley (mom) to a nice mother’s day lunch and after that went for a walk. We took mom on the 5 mile walk, which was from bridge to bridge, since she wasn’t able to walk with us on the march of dimes. We took so good pictures and then we just went home and relaxed. That has been the theme the last few days, just settling in getting used to being a family in our home. The boys have been doing great, Kaden has 4ft tall 30 inch wide oxygen tank with his 50 ft cord so we can walk around with him in our house. He also has a few portable tanks that we can take with us on walks and when we run around town. Braylon has been doing great with his apnea monitor, and it hasn’t gone off yet.
The boys have been very comfortable in their new home, and I took some cute pictures of them lying in bed with mom. They look really sweet together. Today we took the boys around their new neighborhood, but they didn’t seem too excited about it. They slept the entire time. Well that has been our week so far. It has been so nice having other people in the house and being able to wake up to two screaming boys telling us they need to be changed and fed. It sounds bad but it’s a great feeling, at least for now.
