Hospital Food

The food here at the hospital isn't amazing, but it's better than the food at the Humana office building. Plus the tiny boxes of chocolate milk make me think of nap time!

Hoppity Easter!!

Happy Easter everyone!

I was pretty sure that the stork was the one who brought babies, but I'm thankful that the Easter Bunny brought us our little girl!

She's a pretty good sleeper. She's up every 3-4 hours, and loves to play. She's had the hiccups a few times, but never for very long.

Poppi and Mimi came by to play this morning! Natalie had lots to eat, and is getting put down for an afternoon nap.

Happy Little Girl!

She's eating about every 3 hours and is taking about one hour to eat each time. She gets about 25 minutes with each breast - but some of that time is spent trying to figure out how it all works :)

She's a pretty good eater, but when the nipple frustrates her, she let's us know with a couple seconds of crying.

It's really crazy to me that I know her cry and can distinguish it from all the other babies. A couple of days ago all newborn cries sounded the same, but not today!

Her skin is so soft! I love rubbing her back and burping her.

Her hands and feet are amazing! I can't believe how tiny her fingers and toes are. It's my favorite when he holds my finger!!

Yay! Natalie is 1 Day Old!!

She's celebrating by nursing with mom!

Sorry for a lack of updates. It's been a crazy awesome day!! Natalie and mom are healthy and happy! V is breast feeding, and Natalie is a good eater. Diapers aren't smelly (yet), and new born poop is silly looking. We'll share stories very soon - promise. Right now, mom and baby are getting some well deserved rest!
