Modern Technology

I have said this before, but I truly feel so blessed by the amazing technology we have so easily available to us. I don't know how I would have survived the pregnancy while Andrew was in Iraq, without Skype!

What I didn't expect, post-Asher, was for Skype to continue being such a blessing. Several times while we were in the NICU, we skyped with both our families. It was so neat for them to be able to "see" Asher and "watch" him grow. Andrew used to do Kangroo care and skype in the NICU, as you can see in one of the pictures. (a multitasking Daddy!) Asher has been fortunate to meet all his grandparents and Aunt and Uncles at this point, except one...Uncle Jeff in Oregon. Thanks to Skype though, Jeff has at least gotten to "see" him. And now that we are moving even further away from family, we are so glad we are going to be able to stay in touch this way and that the family will be able to "see" Asher regularly!
