Today we saw the cardiologist. Caleb is looking great. He has gained weight and is now 19 1/2 inches long and 7.1 lbs. We were super excited to hear that. He is starting on a diuretic medication to help clear out the fluid build up in his lungs, and hopefully ease his breathing a bit. He seems fairly healthy though. It makes it all a little more real, I like having him at home and to pretend that nothing is really wrong, but unfortunately that can't go on forever.
On the other hand, aren't these boys adorable. We've been very lucky to have Amy here this week. She's been taking beautiful pictures of the boys and she has been super helpful. I seriously don't think I could have made it throughout this week without her here mentally or emotionally.
Collin has formed a special bond with Amy and physically has not let her rest from his assaults. I'm sure she'll miss him when she leaves tomorrow.
Here is me and my beautiful Caleb. This is the blessing outfit that he is drowning in. I'm sure it will fit better by the time he is blessed. (Don't mind the morning hair in the picture!) And, speaking of morning hair, check out Caleb's version:

Caleb is so darn cute. I wish we could be with you, I am sorry I cannot come yet to help.... I am trying to send Cassi surprise out this summer she so misses you..... I know things are so draining but remember you will NOT get more than you can handle... WE love you all........
Caleb is SO beautiful. I love the picture of you two together.
Great picture of your other boys. They are such cuties.
Ryley's hair used to stand straight up like that too. It didn't matter how much I tried to water it down. Within minutes it was back to defying gravity.
Caleb is just such a cute baby! I love the picture of the two of you together, and I'm glad you've had a good dose of Amy therapy.
So happy to hear the update. I love the blessing outfit! Where did you get it? I'm already looking for this baby's blessing outfit because I'm so darn picky!
What beatutiful photos (and we got to see Amy too!). You have such cute boys! Caleb's hair is amazing! I'm glad he is gaining weight and you get this time with him at home. Take care!
I'm glad that he is growing well. The hair makes me laugh. And of course you are a gorgeous as ever!! We love you guys!!
What cute pictures. I can't believe how tiny and cute he is. I wish I could come and see him! Seeing Caleb makes me excited to have my own tiny person -- although I don't want to rush it after talking to you on the phone, zombie woman! just kidding.
OH he's soooo cute!! I love his morning hair. That is great! My kids were quite bald so never really had that hair problem. I will keep praying for you. I can't imagine dealing with the worries and stress. Hang in there. I'll put his/your family's name on the prayer roll at the Mount Timpanogos Temple.
I miss you guys! Mandi had better have her babe soon because I'm going through withdrawals after so much time holding Caleb!
I just love all these picture's. Caleb is beyond darling and your older boys are so cute, too! You can tell that there is a lot of love to go around. (adam and susan's aunt)
