Amazing day

Pierson is now at Meridian! He was moved this afternoon. Grandpa Heninger was wonderful and went and picked up Lexi and Julie just minutes before school was out and took them to the Meridian hospital. There they were able to see Pierson leave the ambulance and walk by him in his isolate bed up to the NICU doors. They were amazed at how tiny he was. It was very special. I met them there and got to stay for awhile with Pierson. He now weighs 3 pounds 10 ounces and is doing great.

Today was the day we were scheduled to have Pierson if I could have made it to 34 weeks. I can't imagine still being in the hospital with all that has happened the last 3 weeks (he is 3 weeks old tomorrow). My body knew that it was not longer able to provide what he needed and that he'd be ok when he was born at that time. What an amazing journey and what a little miracle we have in our hearts and family!
