Tuesday, Ansel will move into Great-Grandparents Jack and Wilma's home in Joplin to continue growing and gaining weight. For perspective, we are still about four weeks from the due date. Ansel will be protected from infections by keeping him in and limiting visitors until sometime in April. Checkups by a visiting nurse a few times a week are scheduled.
This milestone is a tremendous gift. We owe everyone involved a debt of gratitude. The doctors and nurses have been terrific. Prayers, fasting, and well wishes from many great people across the country have really lifted our family. We thank you all.
...and please bless Mommy and Daddy....
Oh Man, that new preemie is loud!
Dad, what comes after 10?
I can hold my own bottle. 
Thanks for visiting, BYE BYE

Hi Kerri & Cody!
It's so good to hear Ansel's going home! I'd love to be there...
Thought I'd give you a couple of captions for the #2 & #3 pics. (countinc from the top)
#2: "I think I drank that last bottle too fast!"
#3: "Hold it right there! No More thermometers you know where!
I love you and hope all continues to go well.
Hey guys! Just wanted to let you know that I've been following the pictures and updates, and it's so wonderful to see that everyone's doing so well. I was recently studying for my PT boards, and one of the topics that I had to review was preemies. Studying some of the different health consideration that come into play, it's made me even more thankful than I was that Ansel has been doing so well. God is clearly at work here. You've been in my thoughts and prayers and will continue to be as you take this next step.
God bless!
Monica
