Ryker is going home!!!

2/15/13 -
I am Finally at the point that I feel ready to make this announcement..... We are currently working as hard as we can to get our sweet Little Ryker home by this coming Tuesday!!! We know full well that this date could easily change, but regardless of "when" OUR BABY IS COMING HOME!!!! :) As of now he is set & ready to go, the only thing holding us back is all the busy work from him being in the hospital his entire life. I cannot even begin to describe how excited we all are about this! It has been our Family's DREAM for way too long! Thank you all for your love, prayers & support! Please keep the positivity coming for an uneventful home time! :) ~ Rachel

Got Ryker's bed all set up in my room, thanks to some AMAZING friends! This is the first time my home has felt like I have a baby & it is beyond wonderful! Feels so good knowing my baby boy is finally going to be at home where he belongs!! ~ Rachel

I have had many wonderful people inquire about how they might be able to help with our transition to get Ryker home. Any diapers (size 3), wipes, gifts cards to CVS (local pharmacy), Walmart, Target, Stop & Shop (local grocer), Gas cards, etc. would be SO greatly appreciated! I have a few friends that are willing to take emails/messages to make it easier to do so. Also, we have a Non-Profit organization that has helped us through our entire journey, Children & The Earth, whom you can donate to through Ryker's blog at-http://www.miracleryker.blogspot.com/ Just click the yellow "DONATE" button on the right side of the page & specify that it is for Ryker. It is all done through Paypal, so it is very simple, especially if you already have a Paypal account. Thank you all so very much for caring the way you all do about my boy! We can't wait to get him home!!!!! ~ Rachel
