Home Sweet Home

We're home! We came home from the hospital yesterday and survived our first night without too much trouble (knock on wood!). Emmeline just sleeps and eats and is the sweetest baby. We have to wake her up in the night to feed her, otherwise she'd just keep on sleeping.


We gave the Bambina her first bath at home this morning. She loves having her hair washed but she gets sort of cold since we can't get her umbilical cord wet yet. We've decided it's definitely a two-man job having a baby at home! I'm so glad Chris is able to stay home for a few days while we get the hang of this. He is SUCH a trooper. If I ever need help with anything, even if it's in the middle of the night, Chris is willing to do anything I need. I think he's loving taking care of our little one as much as I am!


Emmeline's hair looks like a new baby chick's after she has her bath. It just goes POOF! I'm gonna have to figure out how to tame it like the nurses in the hospital did because it was so cute!

Here are some pictures of the proud daddy and his baby. She is enthralled with him -- she stares up into his eyes while he holds her and loves the sound of his voice.


We just love this little one to death! We think she's the most beautiful thing in the whole wide world. It's such a blessing to have such a pure, sweet little baby in our home. We love her so much and are so happy to be parents.
