I had another wonderfully long night with Mom.
Today we spent all day at home. My sister Breanna and I had so much fun with Mom.
Mom tells me I am doing a great job with all my duties here at home. Eat, sleep and poop. I am a champ.

Day 3 at Home

I have never felt so much love, or gotten so much attention. My sisters love me.
I enjoy staying up all night with Mom.
I had my first Dr. appointment today. Shane Christensen is my Dr. He was great.
Mom took me to the DMV today to get a handicap placard for our car. I think the Dr's gave it to my mom because she feels handicap when she is trying to carry me and all my equipment around. It couldn't be because I am handicapped.
I weigh 7 lbs 1 oz

Day 2 at Home

Things are going well here at the Johnson home. My sisters love me and want to touch me all the time. I am learning how to adjust to all the attention. I have a Dr. apt tomorrow morning first thing. I hope all is well.
Mom has kept me mostly in our room because of the Oxygen and monitor. I am still working on getting familiar with the sounds and smells of my new house. I miss all my wonderful Nurses at IMC.
