Our Hospital Stay

Prepare yourself for a lot of pictures...
 Miller was so excited to meet Jacob and he really "got" it more than we thought he might.
 Poppy and Cissy meeting Jacob
 Jacob gave Miller a caboose for his train set.  Miller was pretty pumped.
 Not loving his checkup
Miller really wanted to hold Jacob and did fairly well.  We're still working on the whole head support thing.
 Sweet big brother kisses
  Jessica and Sally Caroline came to visit
 Merrye Summers stopped by when she had a break from her internship
 Aunt Kate and Malley stopped by
Maggee and Andrew came by too
 Enola and Daniel - Enola was so excited to hold Jacob!
 Sweet Hannah
Kendall and Will drove all the way from Guntersville and brought us dinner from Brio.  Yummmm...
Jacob with Celia.  We failed to get a picture of them in the delivery room so we had to make due the date we got discharged.  Thanks for a great delivery, Celia!
Sarah Beth and Michael also came to see us, but we forgot to get a picture of them!  So sad :(

The day we left the hospital was crazy.  Absolutely crazy.  These are the best "going home" shots we got.  I must admit I was pretty upset about it even though it was a little silly I'll admit (of course in my defense my hormones are still a little out of whack).
This is a horrible, horrible picture, but it is literally the only picture we got the day we came home.  Can you tell I was a little upset about the less-than-perfect day I had imagined?  Miller was at Nana's house where he stayed for two nights while we got settled in with Jacob.
We are doing well and getting settled, but I must admit I'm not sure what I'm going to do when my mom goes home.  Be back soon with an update from our first few days home.  Jacob is one week old today, but it's almost time to nurse him again so that post will have to wait :)

  2. The new women's hospital was unbelievable, thought you were at a 5 star hotel. Miller LOVED the fountains & elevators. He thought Jacob was pretty cool too. So many visitors, Jacob was calm, slept thru most and caught onto nursing quickly. Have to admit that checkout day was a little too wild and hectic. But what a blessing Jacob is and how fortunate we all are.
    love you,
    Mom/Gran
