The Journey of James Weston

Sunday, May 21st, 2023 - Saturday, May 27th, 2023 On Sunday, Family Day, James experienced his first train ride. We went to the Florida Railroad Museum and took 1½ hour train ride.

That meant every morning we enjoyed snuggles. 🤗 There are a ton of parents that co-sleep but we have never had that opportunity because James has always been in a medical crib. Every time we have ever held him has been such a big deal! Well this week, every morning James would scoot over to Mom and put his head on her chest. It was absolutely adorable!  Out of the 8 nights we stayed in Jacksonville 2 of the nights James did not require oxygen. That was Tuesday and Wednesday night.
