Dylan’s First Month…!

I’ve had a lot of people calling and emailing, asking when they might get a chance to meet the newest member of our family. First off I want to thank everyone for all the warm wishes that have been circulating on Facebook and through our email in-boxes… believe me, it is not unnoticed!! Julie and I are trying to keep up with all the email, but with the new addition we don’t seem to have as much free time as before… “gee, ya think!”

As for Dylan, well he is doing just fine and we are very happy to finally have him home from the NICU! Unfortunately though, the fact remains… he is still a premature baby and due to his size and age, he is much more susceptible to health issues than most. For this reason, Julie and I are going to try and hold off having visitors, at least until he reaches several months of age. Please be patient… it’s going to take a while for us to adjust to our new lifestyle of parenthood! For now, here are some photos of Dylan during his first month on the planet… Enjoy!!
