It was good to get home, although I had a few moments that first evening when I secretly thought, "maybe I should just go back to the hospital, life here is too crazy!" That evening at dinner we sang Happy Birthday Baby Isaac and ate cupcakes. Isaac was barely 36 hours old and slept through the celebration in my arms!
We are doing well - Matt and I are sleeping in shifts at night and Isaac is eating and sleeping and crying and doing his little baby thing. Friends are helping out with meals and the house helper is trying to keep the sink mostly clear of dirty dishes and the laundry under control. I really feel pretty good, just a little bit tired (ha! maybe more like exhausted!)
So, here are a few more photos to enjoy!
Just a few minutes old
Julianna's first chance to hold the new baby - she anticipated this moment for weeks!
This is definitely one of my favorite photos from the girls' visit
He was pretty content getting ready to leave the hospital
Leaving the hospital.....
Arriving at home...
Lydia is starting to satisfy some of her baby holding desires with her baby dolls, which is a helpful compromise for everyone involved!
What a sweet big sister!
