Sean is not quite 10 months old, but will be this Sunday. It's hard to believe that our sweet baby boy entered this world 10 months ago. Mommy was remembering the week before Sean was born when she was on bed rest and unable to get out of bed. Each morning feeling so blessed that our baby had one more day safely in Mommy's womb. We were told to take one day at a time and the longer our baby stayed in the womb, the better for him.
We were given a list of all the potential risks of having a preemie so early. It scared us, but we did our best to trust God with the outcome and hope for the best for our tiny baby. As difficult as it was to be on best rest, each day was a blessing.
One week later, Sean was ready to enter the world. When he was born on June 29th, 2011 @ 9:19AM, 2 lbs. 4 oz. Daddy and Mommy were so excited to be first time parents. His birth was very emotional for both Mommy & Daddy. He was so tiny and fragile, but we were parents and so proud and excited!
A day later, our fears set in of having a baby so small, but the NICU staff were extremely supportive and educated us as best they could.
Today, we are so blessed to have a healthy baby boy who is doing great! Sean went for his eye exam this week and had his eyes dialated. We received good results. Sean doesn't need glasses! The Doctor said that 1 in 5 preemies need glasses.
Once again, we have received good news!
We are enjoying Sean and his growth. He is doing awesome! We are so grateful to God for blessing us with such a beautiful and happy baby boy!
Thank you for your continued support.
Sean's Mommy & Daddy
