The Eagle has landed in his new nest

An intense programme of final check-ups, blood tests and detailed examinations were necessary in order to get the approval for Jakob and Kerstin leaving the Semmelweis-Klinik on the third day, Thursday 16th. We all were very happy and relieved when a very nice paediatrician gave us the good news, that Jakob is a healthy boy throughout and that we have the ok to leave for home.

On one of the hottest and sunniest days of the year we left the clinic early afternoon and Jakob clearly was fascinated and swamped at the same time by the totally new environment and impressions outside the clinic and in the car on the way home. It seemed though that he felt comfortable as he fell asleep halfway to home where grandma Heidi and aunt Sandra have prepared some welcome decorations for the new inhabitant and were waiting impatiently. The elevator was decorated with balloons and a little stork-figure, outside our entrance a beautiful picture painted by Sandra and Heidi was positioned and also Jakob's room was decorated with balloons. The long work Wednesday night and throughout Thursday definitely paid off.

Home sweet home - Welcome to your nest

The little man seems to have settled well in his new home, and even though it was pretty warm inside due to the heat, he was sleeping very well and long in his first night. Unfortunately we will have to wait long to find out what he was dreaming in this first night in a new place, we might even never find out. Anyhow we really hope that all his dreams do come true as the peaceful sleep he had gives us very much confidence, that it was nice dreams he had.

Jakob, Kerstin & Markus
