All Is Well At The Moment

JW, Allie, and Mom have been home for a few days now and everyone is doing well.  JW has been sleeping A LOT, and we are hoping that means the reflux meds are doing their job and providing our little guy with some relief.  He has been sleeping so soundly that sometimes he barely wakes up even when Allie bathes him!  I would imagine he was just exhausted after those 3 days with little to no sleep.  Allie and Mom are also rested and feeling better.  A BIG THANK YOU to all our wonderful brothers and sisters at the Church of Christ for helping out with food, cleaning up around the house while Mom and Allie were gone, and for your encouragement and support...well, mainly for taking care of Dad while everyone was away!!  We love you all very much!  Also, thank you to everyone who has faithfully lifted JW, Allie, Wacy, the kids, and our family up to the Lord in prayer.  Your prayers have been heard and we have certainly felt them!  At the moment, things are calm in the Taylor/LaMascus household and we are hoping it will stay that way.  JW went to see Dr. Lutton yesterday and he weighed in at 8lbs. 13 oz.!!  He has gained almost a pound in the past week!  Dr. Lutton said everything looked good, praise God!  Allie also got a call from ECI and they will hopefully be sending a nurse over in the next couple of weeks to help with JW, possibly up to about 40 hours per week!!!  That will be such a blessing and will offer Mom and Allie a chance to get some real rest and a reprieve from JW's tedious, round-the-clock schedule.  On another note, a physical therapist should be coming over starting next week to do therapy with JW!  One more much needed thing taken care of, hopefully!  Thank you again for your prayers, they have passed much strength on to us and to JW.  Please continue to remember him and our family.
