Our First Day

Thankfully we have had a great first day at home with our precious little Tommy! We were released from the hospital at 5:30pm and made it home by 7:00pm last night. We fed the baby, fed ourselves and tried to get situated in the house. Everything changes having him in the house!

It wasn't a bad first night, even though I didn't sleep much. I couldn't help it! Between the feedings and changings, I was pretty nervous at every little sound he made. I know there is a huge learning curve here, so I hope to learn what all of his adorable little sounds and squeaks mean.

We had our first pediatrician appointment this morning and everything is looking great. He is healthy and still weights 8 pounds. We will go back next week for the second visit.

I continue to be overwhelmed by the generosity of our family and friends. We have received packages in the mail (including a sweet gift from this blogger) and delicious meals from friends. We are so grateful for all the love and support.

It's such a gift that my hubby and I can both be home during these unforgettable days. The only schedule that matters is when Tommy eats, sleeps and poops. ;) It's amazing how nothing else matters.

Here are a few pictures...
