first day home

well its been over a day now that Erin has been home. Leah and I made a little sign for angelle and erin when they drove up, and angelle was all teary. Also our neighbors had taped hearts with their names on the door saying welcome home. Angelle napped while leah napped, and erin napped in her swing. I played some wii to relax. I was rocking the baseball game, (winning 7-1) but then the stupid Wii froze. i think the programmers programmed it to freeze if the computer was losing too bad. annoying. Laurie made us dinner last night and it was super good. chicken with cheezy stuffing and awesome green beans. Peach cobbler for dessert. and a HUGE bowl of cookies. like seriously 100 cookies. thanks laurie!

THe night was decent. She didnt sleep super great. She was feeding from 10-1 sort of, then angelle was tired so i took her downstairs and laid on the couch with her till about 4, then went upstairs and she slept with me in the bed. Not much contiguous sleep though. I was super tired today.

We took erin to her first dr appt this morning and she checked out mostly good. she had lost a few more ounces, and the dr said she looked a little yellow so we had to take her to the hospital for a bilirubin test. Erin did great for that! angelle was more worked up than Erin was. Test came back within normal range but the dr said she needs to eat so she can pee/poo to get out whatever it is that makes her look jaundiced. so we decided to give her a little formula till ang's milk comes in.

I proceeded to nap while Leah napped. American pie 2 was on in the background. i roused every now and then to jason biggs being called petey and playing a trombone.

Angelle went to target with her mom. Yay! Erin's first trip to target!!! (did you catch the feigned enthusiasm/sarcasm? :) )

then we played in the afternoon. Leah held erin some more and pushed her in her swing, and did some cutting and gluing (not with baby erin, with construction paper only).

Oh, and by the way, I've read Dora goes to Start Mountain about 50 times in the past week. Leah has made it her current favorite book (get ready for sarcasm) YAY!!!

ALright, time for dinner (tonight, thanks to grammy).

Just flipping through...

Dinner? How lucky.

What a beautiful baby, too.

(I snuck a peek at the photo towards the bottom.)

Good luck!

Have a wonderful day!

That is too funny, Zach and I took a personal day yesterday and we also napped through American Pie 2 :-)

I can't wait for the interupted sleep!
