Homecoming

Today we had a good day. Last night Eleanor did great. She was a bit fussy in the early morning hours and just wanted to be held. She settled eventually though and we were able to get some sleep. Today has been another low key day. I saw my doctor, Eleanor saw her pediatrician, and we met with the lactation consultant. I am recovering well and got discharged. Eleanor is doing great too. Her blood work was within normal limits and she only lost 5 ounces. She is nursing well so far too.

Some of Eleanor's gifts. Everybody has been so sweet.
Little miss has been sleeping most of the day. We were anxious all day to get home.

We got her dressed up to come home. She looked so precious in this dress. It is so fun having a girl.

She slept during the car ride.





When we got home the boys were playing in the front yard with Gigi. They were so happy to see us! Everett has already warmed up to Eleanor and Hampton is in love. He kept giving her her blanket and can't stop saying "baby!" We are now settled in. We got Carrabbas take out and Eleanor and I are now resting. Praying for somewhat of a peaceful night, but no matter what we feel overwhelmingly blessed.
