The road out of the woods

It's another good morning and Finn's a week old today! Finn had a wonderful night and we have enjoyed every moment with him this morning - we are feeling at peace. He opened his eyes for us and we had a lot of snuggle time ;)

My Mom came up last week after she heard what a hard time we were having. She traded off "duty" with Adriana and has been such a huge help to us this week. From cleaning out crazy messy house to doing loads of laundry, to running errands, to providing much needed emotional support - Moms always come at the right times and we were so thankful to have her here with us....so was Bernie!

Nonni enjoying some hand holding and bonding with Mr. Finn. He loves our voices and our touch.

 Waiting for surgery wasn't as bad as I thought. It went by pretty fast. Given that he is having such a good day - our anxiety levels (although not non-existent) are much lower today. I will leave you with a hilarious name sign that hangs out of Finn's room that the nurses colored. I need 3 wishes granted today. I know what they all will be.
