Day 1 at Home!







It was so wonderful to come home! When we left the hospital, Claire sat next to Aspen and read the book "Goodnight Moon" to her. Aspen promptly fell asleep and slept the whole drive home. When we got home, David had a bottle of sparkling cider for us to celebrate with.

Aspen is such a sweet, calm, quiet baby. She really started to eat a lot more today, but she is still very sleepy. She was only awake and alert a couple times today. I gave Aspen her first bath, and she was not very thrilled about it. But she smells sooo good. Tomorrow she goes for her first doctor visit!

Claire was so eager to come home from school today to play with her little sister. She said that at recess she and her friends played "baby shower". Brenda does lots of volunteer work at Claire's school and all the teachers at the school were so excited to hear that Aspen is home, Claire said so many teachers talked to her today! We've had lots of friends come to meet Aspen already. She is well loved!
