It just so happened that a whole bunch of really important people, all of whom had been wanting to visit Silas for a while now, decided to come together for a weekend to remember!! We had a blast seeing a couple of Sy's favorite nurses from his days in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. After three months at home and a quadrupling of his size, it was good to be able to see the ones who took such good care of him during such a critical time. As we celebrate this Thanksgiving week, we continue to be grateful to have had them watching over him then and for their friendship now (and mostly for the amazing Mexican that they brought us... of the food variety).
Visitors #2 and 3 were Sy's Grandmommy and Aunt Sarah. Grandmommy came for an overnight visit and got in lots of lovin'. Sarah happened to be in Buffalo for a school sporting event and was able to come see Silas for the first time since his second week in the NICU. She even got to hold him for the very first time!
The weekend topped off with Auntie Christina and Uncle Rick coming in from Maine! We had a ton of fun together and with Nana and Papa, too! Silas was mesmerized by the Sunday Night Bills game (someone had to be!) and loved trying to find Daddy and Uncle Rick in the Nose Bleed section...what can one expect from scalper tickets????
Oh, and the big event for us was, of course, the weekly weigh in. 10 lbs 8 oz last Monday, 11 lbs. 2 oz. one week later! Nice work, Silas!
