Home at last

Hi. I am Ryker.



Today I finally got to come home! I spent 16 longs days in the Newborn Intensive Care Unit. I was born with pneumonia in my lungs. I didn't feel good for a long time but I am doing lots better each day.

Today my mom saw me being cute so she took a picture. She takes lots of pictures.....



This is me in my car seat ready to go home



I had to come home with some oxygen to help me breathe but I will try hard each day to get better so I don't need it anymore.


I have just met my big sister Haylee for the first time. She will be so much fun to play with when I get older.



I am looking forward to meeting my other big sister Kenzie and my big brother Jayce later today. And of course my grandmas and grandpas and aunts and uncles will all eventually come say hi.
I have to remember that I am still small though and that I can't get too excited or my mom will make me have a nap. I hope that when I get bigger and healthier and can meet more friends that I know have been thinking about me lots.

Thanks everyone for loving me so much already.

Love Ryker
