Smooth Sailing So Far

We've had the baby home from the hospital for eight days now, and things have gone pretty smoothly so far. She (the baby) doesn't sleep through the night yet, obviously, but she seems to be falling into a schedule already. She sleeps most of the day away and seems to be more alert in the evening hours, just as she was before she was born. At night she is sometimes a little difficult to get to sleep, but then wakes to eat on a pretty regular schedule (every two hours or so).

My son has adjusted to her (so far) unbelievably well. He likes to lay on the floor next to her when we put her down on a blanket, and is very helpful with her pacifier. He wants to be very involved with everything that has anything to do with her.

We're very proud of both of our wonderful children!

My wife is bouncing back from the C-section amazingly well. She's having very little pain and only minor discomfort and just refuses to be kept down. I'm very proud of her, as well.
