Update on Beth and Carter:

Everyone is doing well. Beth came home yesterday. She is feeling very good. Carter is doing well too. He got a little water on his lungs from the delivery. Must have taken the first breath a little too quickly. As a precaution, they wanted to give him antibiotics to make sure he didn't get pneumonia or an infection. They do that through an IV and so he had to go to the NICU at Stormont. He is doing great. Beth is now feeding him and he is already gaining weight (our kids seem to have no trouble eating). The dose of antibiotics will not be done until Monday evening so they have to keep him there until then. If everything goes well, we will be bring him home Monday night or Tuesday morning.


Since we had not dealt with the NICU with Kennedy, it was a little scary and overwhelming. We quickly saw how fortunate we are and that we are happy that they are taking this precaution to make sure he is healthy and strong when he comes home.

Thanks for all the calls, text, emails, prayers, etc. I will post again on Tuesday with an update and hopefully report that Kennedy is changing Carter's diapers at home, so I don't have to. :)
