WE ARE HOME!!!


We are gradually getting used to parenthood and the steep learning curve that accompanies it...We are learning all about the trials and tribulations of nursing, burping, sleeping (or lack thereof), etc... BUT WE ARE STILL OVER THE MOON! And lovin it! Thank GOD my mom has been here to help AND that I have the best husband in the world! (not to brag!) We are really a team! Dalton has his first doctor appointment tomorrow. He needs to have an empty tummy for 3 hours before hand...should be interesting. Dalton seems like he is changing already! He loves to sleep during the day (not so much at night)...BUT he is SO good! (How did that happen? How did we get such a mellow kid? Ok, I know many of you are thinking...Well duh, it's Trav's son!) He doesn't cry much at all, even during the night when he is awake, he is just alert and chillin as we are thinking "shouldn't we all be asleep?"

TODAY was wonderful! Dalton had a visit from his bud Finn! AT LAST!!! Also I received some much needed friend time with Melissa before she heads to Maryland :( It was such therapy to have her here to tell me all will be ok! (Oh, and the treats and magazines were a hit!)

Finn was so excited to see us!

As you can see, the feeling was mutual!!!

2 pals, just chillin' together...

Here are a few photos that we thought you'd enjoy from the last few days:

Daddy and Dalton relaxing in bed.
Dalton and Nanny cuddling up.

Grammy and Dalton loving each other.

Dalton and I ready to leave the hospital...A huge sigh of relief for us all, even though we had great care there!



Heading home...First time in his snazzy carseat.

Home at last!

  1. I'm going to miss you guys soooo much. Even though it was short, I would not have traded our visit today for anything. Can't wait to see the little guys runnin' around together. Hang in there mommy and daddy. One day at a time...

  2. I wish I was there to meet your little guy and visit! As I have said before, he is ADORABLE! I love all of the pictures and am glad that everyone is home with help from Grandma!

  3. I'm so happy you're happy! And Melissa is right- everything is going to be just fine. The first 6 weeks really is the hardest and I really believe that parenthood just keeps getting better and better.

    Maybe we can meet up while we are in the bay area visiting at the end of the month, or if you're up to it, you should stop by Linus' first birthday on the 28th :)

    Hugs and kisses! Take care of yourselves and keep on working like a team!
