Finally Maybe

So Connor has now been off the morphine since yesterday noon. All things according to Hoyle means he can come home noon tomorrow. Finally. Hope I didn't just jinx it. He is doing so well this time around. The nurses said he was doing good, but he has needed lots of holding today. He hardly spent any time in his bed. I got there and fed him his dinner and rocked for an hour. He is so sweet.
Dave and I finished getting all the paperwork filled out and gathered for CPS for the home study. Tomorrow we get our fingerprints taken for a bigger better background check. Must have passed the first one. It is amazing all the things they wanted to know. Anyway we got it done and we wait for the home walk-through to be arranged. One more step out of the way.
We've been talking a lot to Audrie telling her about how her brother is coming home. I'm not sure she gets it yet, but she will tomorrow. Connor got her a present that he will give her tomorrow. Hope that helps.
First week home and it is filled with the holiday. Hopefully we have it spread out enough that he doesn't get overwhelmed. We have it set so there is never more than two extra kids here. I already know that Kristie's boys will be great. They are old enough to understand having to be quiet and calm around Connor.
Life as we know it changes tomorrow. And he is worth it.
