Homecoming Day!

This morning I saw a hunky hitch-hiker standing outside of the hospital.

 I couldn't resist myself. I pulled over and just had to pick him up!

What a sweet ride home together... Reminiscing about our drive TO the hospital 14 days earlier. Little did we know we wouldn't be coming home that night... It has been a whirlwind of an October so far! But pulling into our driveway was a sweet milestone. 

Need I say more??

There is nothing better than pulling into home with this as your welcome! Daddy is home! Our pumpkin patch was in full bloom, balloons had been delivered from different people, a huge card was written on by all our neighbors... It was a homecoming we will never forget! 

Of course Jon had his priorities in place in what he wanted to do now that he was out of jail. First stop? The pharmacy to fill his "drugs." ;) You'd think Jon would want me to run and grab those. Nope! He wanted to go in to see and talk to our pharmacist because, quite frankly, we love our pharmacist! :) 

I teased Jon about where he chose to sit down - at the blood pressure machine. He has had his vitals checked every hour (or so) for 2 weeks. I asked him if we should check them one last time. He wasn't amused. ;) 

Next item on his "to do" list? Pick the kids up from school! Yes, you read that right. My hubby is crazy. Specifically, crazy about his kids. ;) He has felt so bad that he's been gone for so long, he wanted to be right there when they got out of school. Only Jon... :)

After all that excitement, a nap was in order. Well, not before loving on these 2...

Jon is supposed to be on a 90 minute cycle of activity (therapy or walk), snack, sleep. It's funny, at one point today I told Taylor, "Daddy has been napping, so he'll now be ready for some good awake time!" I had to laugh because it sounded like I was talking about one of the babies!  I'm juggling yet another nap schedule in our home. Hilarious! :)

I didn't end up taking any more photos because, well, I was just soaking it all in. But trust me, today was good. Very good. And now we head to our own bed! Cannot wait! 

As I was writing this and reminiscing on being back together as a family, I went to retrieve a pic to post on here, and I discovered these gems that Jackson apparently put on my phone this afternoon. LOL!

Just a sweet reminder of how good it is to be back home. :)
