Home Sweet Home

Click here to check out Max's Flicker page for all his photos

We came home Sunday at 5PM. It was scary leaving the hospital with all the wonderful Nurses and wonderful advise but they assured me that Ben and I would do fine and they reminded us to just have fun! Great Advise! Our Friends Wahn & Gloria, and my mom came with us and helped us get all the bags in and get settled. The first 2 days Max and I pretty much stayed in our bed room. Today we have expanded to the living room. It was easier those 1st few days to keep everything contained to one room. We did however go for a walk Monday across the street to see the neighbors and get a little sun to help the Jaundice. And today we were in the back yard playing fetch with the dogs.

Max is a really good baby, he eat every 3 hours and sleeps in between. He had his 1st Dr.'s visit yesterday and got checked out on his Jaundice, weight, and all his little tests came back perfectly normal. He had his 1st sponge bath at home yesterday. He wasn't waking up for his feeding so I thought a little bath might be fun and wake him up. It did and was lot's of fun for the whole house hold, including the dogs. I'm having fun dressing him up in different outfits but the onesies are the most practical. They don't get all bunched up when handeling him so thanks to everyone for the 247 onesies, they are coming in handy.

We have a pack -n- play my co-workers gave us set up downstairs and a basenett and changing table upstaris. This helps me from having to go up and down the stairs too much. I forget my surgery after I sit for a while and stand up and remember. It's hard to not do stuff around the house. My mom is still with us (thank goodness) She has been cooking, cleaning, shopping and baby sitting. Ben does most of the up and down for me. It seems like he is constantly running around getting stuff, organizing stuff, preparing stuff, he has probably been up and down 100 times since we got home - he is such a great Daddy and Husband!

We are all excited about making baby Max movies and sound files on our phones, photos and just having fun with technology and our new baby. We will try to update the blog more often now that I'm downstairs.

Love to hear from how all of you are doing so leave us a comment or two in the comments section or shoot us an e-mail.
