We're Home!




We have been home for a few days now and the adjusting period has begun. Carter is doing better than I thought he would... although there is still time for that to change. He is a little more needy. He wants us to play with him a little more and stuff like that. The cutest thing he does though it to pull a chair over to the sliding glass door where Addilyn lays in her bassinet. He just touches her and watches her. It's so so DARLING! She is a little bit jaundice so we have her in the sunlight as much as possible. The doctor said she'll be just fine now that she will be more interested in eating.
Carter asked for the first time today to hold Addilyn. His exact words were "Hold it?" So, over to the couch we went where he laughed the entire time he held her. We explained to him that he doesn't get to hold her unless we are right there. We'll see if it works. A lot of Addilyn's time will be spent out of his reach for the first little while.
Bryan has the month off (he is now officially in his 4th year of school!!!!) so he is here to play with Carter. My mom is also in town for the week to help me out. Addi is sleeping like a newborn... every 2 1/2 to 3 hours she wakes up to eat, then promptly falls asleep while eating. But things are going great overall. We'll see how I am feeling in a week or two about everything. She is so cute and I can't imagine our family without her. I also can't imagine being pregnant again! :)
