Made it back home safely

Brayden has had a busy few days in Iowa with family and friends.  He has been doing better each day except he still cries off and on during the night.  He just doesn't seem to get comfortable and he is not happy when he has to sit on his butt.  Since he has stitches on his butt, it bothers him. Hoping we can figure out something to help him.  The stitches will come out in another week or 2.  Once they are out, I am sure he will feel better.

Last night Brayden's uncle Brandon, pulled out 2 of his tubes.  He had 3 tubes this time and 2 of them were ready to come out because they stopped draining.  The 3rd tube will come out on Sunday and we will also be able to give him a bath again.  Also Sunday will be our 1st fill for round #3!  Can't wait to get the 1st fill behind us and start this round. 

Brayden is doing good with his tubes in his ears, really doesn't seem to bother him, he just hated the ear drops we had to give him.  One thing that Brayden was awesome about this time around, he took all his medicine like a pro.  I think he has been in so much pain he knew it would help him if he took them.
