We got outta there quick today....I arrived with some breakfast about 8 a.m. and by 10:45 a.m. we were on the road. He had another successful check up. His 'go home weight' was 8 lbs 8 oz. Here are some pictures from this morning before and after his first car ride!

Head up!

Snack and a nap

After a slow start to feeding Colin has really caught on. He had some leftover gunk in his throat and was having trouble swallowing last night but has knocked back some formula this afternoon. The visitors have slowed down a bit so Mommy (and Colin) are taking a nap.

Here are a few more pictures from today.

Almost 1 oz!

Zzzzzzz

Day 2

Lindsay is walking around feeling and looking great this morning. She must have done this before! Colin has already had his circumcision and pediatrician checkup - everything looks good! Lindsay has seen a bunch of different nurses in the last 12 hours due to a recent baby boom. The nursery was overflowing last night - a dozen babies - and not enough nurses to feed, rock, bathe, etc. At least we don't have a roommate as some other new mothers do!

We will head home some time tomorrow and get settled. Parker was very excited this morning to come and see his little brother. We brought some donuts for everyone! Parker left with T-Dub for a day of fun at the park and the zoo. He will come back up this afternoon for a visit after his nap.

Donuts, Mommy & Bert - Life is goood

Parker or Colin?
