11/1 - First day alone with mommy

Today was Emily and mommy's first day together alone. Not sure if Emily noticed, but mommy was a bit nervous. Sure she had done the same with Tyler, but that was a while ago ... and Emily is an entirely different baby. In fact, for the time being ... she is a bit easier to feed because she nurses relatively well and doesn't have the reflux thing that Tyler had.

The morning went by fast and everything went well. She ate like a champ and slept soundly giving mommy some time to do random things around the house. Yes yes, she should have been sleeping when Emily was sleeping. It makes sense, but is not as easy as it sounds. Since mommy hasn't been at home for a while, there are so many things she wants/needs to do. As long as she can get in one nap a day, I think it will be okay ... at least for now.

In the afternoon, Emily's schedule was kind of off. I am not sure how the NICU kept her on the 3 hour schedule. Every time we visited, she ate at the same time and was content. Today, she either wanted to eat early or sleep more. So mommy let her do which ever one she wanted and she was happy.

Aunty Cindy and baby Camden came to visit in the later afternoon. It's the first time we saw Camden since our visit to the hospital the day after he was born. He's already pretty big for a 2 and a half month old.

Before we knew it ... daddy was home with Tyler. The Yee's came over to drop off the bed for Grandma Jenny to borrow and then we were picking up Grandma Jenny from the airport.

Ahhh, our first day as mother and daughter went well.
