Hi Everyone!
We are finally home from the hospital and it's sure good to be back at home with all of our boys! We were discharged this afternoon from Baptist at 2:30 and went straight over to Vandy to get Luke's heart checked out. Aside from the difficulty of waiting rooms with a 3 day old and a mom who just had a c-section, our visit went wonderfully well! We left Vandy with the good news that Luke's heart looks "perfect and boring" to the Cardiologist! There was nothing at all on the Echo that looked out of place, everything measured perfectly and we don't ever have to go back!!!!! Neal and I barely held it together until we got to the car...what a relief to hear that our precious little Luke is perfectly fine and we have nothing (but the normal stuff) to worry about. We are so overwhelmed by God's goodness and faithfulness and are praising His name for bringing us through this in His perfect timing. We were thrilled to bring Luke home tonight knowing that he is here to stay, that we don't have to bring him back to the hospital.
Luke is a little angel. He looks a lot like both of his big brothers, but already has his own personality. He is pretty quiet and easy to calm so far. He took to breastfeeding like a champ, we've already got a little routine going. He responds so much to Neal's voice, today, at Vandy, he got really upset and Neal got down in his face and started talking to him and Luke literally stopped crying in an instant and fell asleep! It was a magical moment, Neal and I just looked at each other in shock and then started laughing, which isn't something I should be doing right now, so please, don't be funny around me. :)
Sam and Gabe are excited about their baby brother and are so glad to have him home to look at and laugh at.
Thanks for all of your prayers over these last months. It has meant the world to us to have your support. I'll post more later, when I'm not so doped up on pain medication!
Neal, Lindsay, Sam, Gabe and Luke!

Praise the Lord, Praise the Lord! Let the earth hear His voice! Praise the Lord, Praise the Lord, let the people rejoice....To God be the glory great great things HE has done...! He is hearing a LOT of rejoicing from this home in Houston!
Luke is such a mix between the boys. I got the chills when I told Scott about Luke being healed!! What a mighty God we serve.
He is beautiful! We are so grateful for God's goodness in healing Luke! He is so faithful, and has brought you through this difficult trial. Pretty cool to believe God for this, and then see it come to pass!
So handsome! Glad to know his heart is healthy. Praise Him :)
