Bryce has to return to the hospital, and the happiness of being home again!

Well many of you know that we found out that Bryce was Jaundice and would be needing therapy to assist in reducing his billiribbon level. Below are pictures of his therapy.

This is the photo therapy booth. It is the first phase of photo therapy for jaundice babies. Everything was o.k. until he woke up with eyes wide open and realized,
"oh this mask has to go back over my eyes". That is when it became a nightmare! He cried from 11pm until 5am the next morning, raking at the mask on his face, pulling it off several times. It was heart wrenching! But we made it through it, thanks to the strength from GOD!




Here is a closer look at the photo therapy booth. Bless his little heart.




Looking like a lightning bug! This is the second phase of the photo therapy for jaundice. It is a fiber optic blanket, called a billi blanket. Much better than the first phase which turned out to be a nightmare!!




On a much happier note, these are the times that we cherish with our little one.

Looking into mommas eyes. It is amazing how much they love each other!




Looking so fresh and so clean, after my first bath at home!




Stretching out on the changing table after a long nap.




Looking so cute you could eat him!!
