1 week!

We were discharged home from hospital on 2/15/13. Longest 2 days ever for me, I wanted out of that hospital badly. Overall it was a great labor/delivery experience.

When we went to dress Brennen in his going home outift, we laughed bc all the newborn outfits I brought and ALL were wayyy to big. So we managed to dress him, but he was drowning in his clothes. Put lil guy into the car seat and then realized how tiny this baby really was. Snapped a bunch of pics and off to the car we went.

Got home, I waited in garage with baby while Ant went in and greeted Big sis Uma who was going to be overly excited since she was at Nana's house for past couple days. Ant then brought Uma out to garage and we brought the baby inside. Uma was excited and sniffing everything baby! We took Brennen into his nursery, put him in his crib for 1st time and Miss Uma started jumping up to see in the crib. Hands down cutest thing ever! 1 week later she is sniffing and loving her baby bro. It took Uma a couple days to warm up to Brennen. Soon I know she will be the protector of this baby!

1 week in we are managing very well. My mom is here to help, and Ant's parents have been very helpful through it all! We have Brennen on a 3 hr feed during the day and 4hr at night. He is doing very well. So far he has been a very good baby and we are hoping it stays that way.

So far he is full of gas and farting like his father. Peeing and popping tons. Loving his paci. Found his thumb or fingers or whole hand in his mouth! Doesn't like his feet and hands covered, so the swaddle isn't for this lil guy. Prefers to be nude. And hates diaper changes, but can be soothed during with paci.

Ant has proven to be an awesome Daddy. Soooo very helpful. He is changing diapers, feeding, and playing with our new bundle of joy! We couldn't be happier!

I'm going to try to continue my blog weekly, we will see how I do!
