Dermot Comes Homes

After 9 days in the Special Care Nursery, Dermot got the all clear from his nurses and doctors to come home with his Mommy and Daddy on Friday. This was also the first chance he had to meet his crazy cousins in person (after Skyping with them the week before). It was a big day for the little guy!

(Make sure you scroll to the very bottom for a special video with Dermot’s cousin, Bridget.)

Dermot thought this wasn't his most flattering picture, but who cares -- he passed his tests with flying colors and was ready to go home!

One thought on “Dermot Comes Homes

  1. Bridget keeps saying, “again, again!” to the movie of her holding Dermot. It’s safe to say Addie, Colin and Bridget are totally in love with their new baby cousin!
