Home Sweet Home


After a long five days in the hospital we finally came home yesterday! Within a matter of minutes of arriving home Dylan had already taken over the main floor... Oh well, to be expected. Chad and I are SOOOOO lucky to have both sets of grandparents in town and eager to help us out. Also a big thank you to all of our friends and family who have visited and provided support. We could not do this alone. Although we are very happy to be home one thing we miss about the hospital is the nursery :) We think Dylan has his days and nights confused. He loves to sleep and be happy during the day and winds himself up around 11 pm when company is gone and we are ready for bed... Hopefully that will change! Our second issue we have run into is finding clothes for him to wear. Although he was considered full term, most of his newborn clothes are too big. We changed outfits 5 times yesterday and quickly ran out of laundry. Thankfully grandma Kathy excels in this department and graciously volunteered to go out shopping for some premie clothes this afternoon. Hopefully we'll find something that works. Otherwise, all is well here. Just trying to get into a new routine, life with a newborn!

Love the pictures and you look great too, Mama!

I know what you mean about the sleeping issue. Logan decided to sleep only 3 solid hours last night and was up for most of the rest of the night with a stomachache. Oh the tired life of a new mom! I am SO glad you have the grandparents in town to help out - that is such a huge blessing.

I hope to meet him someday soon. You have an adorable family.
