Homecoming!
The monkeys were finally let out of the cage last night. Once we got the test results back, and the nurse let us know that her bilirubin (jaundice) levels were where they wanted them, we busted out the door and never looked back.
I have to say that this whole not really being able to sleep thing is not all it’s cracked up to be. Everyone warns you about it, but I don’t think anything ever really prepares you for it. We love every minute of it though. And we couldn’t think of anything else we would want to keep us up all night.
When we arrived home last night an instant love affair started as well. Brock, the SimplyOutdoors mascot, had an instant infatuation with gorgeous little Abigail. We has been by her side ever since: during feedings, when she is sleeping, when she is getting her diaper changed, when she is crying. He adores her and we are happy about that. He actually adores her so much that sometimes it is almost annoying. A baby can only take so much dog tongue.
We are home. We are adjusting.
It is great to be out of that hospital.

It sounds like Brock and Abigail will get along about as good as Drake and Lil Sugar do – you can’t ask for more… except maybe that Abigail will say “Dada” before she says “Brock”
Oh and I agree that not getting any sleep thing is for the birds, unfortunately it doesn’t go away very fast.
Those pictures are too cute. I’m so glad the whole family is home.
Can Sarah borrow some of her hair? She’s precious! Congrats again!
Congratulations on being home with your happy,healthy, ADORABLE baby!!!! so sweet!!!
I agree with everyone else. Absolutely adorable!;)
AWESOME!
Sorry to be late to the party, Arthur… was gone all weekend and still catching up. Look what I missed!
Congrats to the three of you, and glad to know everyone is fine and dandy!
Very sweet and adorable. Congrats all around!
Those pictures are so cute! They will be great in her baby book too! At least you know Brock will be protective of Abby, that’s a good thing.
Enjoy every minute of it, they grow up fast!
Glad Jen and Abby are home and doing great! Beautiful pictures too…
And our rat terrier was the exact same way when we brought our boys home. They are pack animals and definitely seem to know that the baby is a very important part of that pack now. You can do anything to the dog and he will tolerate it, but do NOT mess with “his” babies – or he will bite!
I think she looks quite a bit like me as a baby!
;) Hey we both looked a lot alike! =) Shes adorable!!!
Look at all her hair!!! She is a cutie and I love all the pink with froggies.
