I Came Home Today!!



Today, my Mommy & I got to come home from the hospital. Daddy had already been home a few times to feed Kitty & Hamster (my parents have trouble naming their pets) and to make sure everything was set up for me. I slept the entire car ride. Before heading to the house, Mommy and Daddy stopped at Target, where Mommy worked, to show me off and to pick up some medication. All of her friends said I was adorable and big!!! We then headed home to just relax and my parents spent the rest of the day getting used to taking care of me with no help.

I Was Born Today!






I was born today!! Mommy & Daddy welcomed me into the world after a LOOOOng 29 hour labor. I was stubborn even before I was born. Mommy's water broke at 6:30am yesterday, and it took lots of pitosin, pain medication and a painful C section to get me out. My Doctor said I was looking right at them when they took me out. I was born at 11:14am and I was 8lb 9oz and 21 1/4 inches long. I was born with red hair and big feet. I had a bath, and the nursery watched me for a while so Mommy could rest after her surgery. Daddy thought it would be a good time to go home for a few hours and set up the crib. (I was 2 weeks early and my parents werent prepared). When Mommy woke up, she watched me until Daddy came back. After a while, my Great Aunt Angie and Cousin Tristan came to see me!! They were very excited to have a new baby in the family. Daddy fed me for the first time, and I slept all afternoon and evening. I had to rest up my lungs so I could scream and keep everyone awake. But, my plans foiled and Mommy & Daddy put me in the nursery. I was disappointed but I will have plenty of nights to keep them awake.
