After a fantastic delivery and great 1st night with Piper Grace, I’m now home going through the ‘To Do’ list Jen had created for her 3 weeks off before the baby.  We were able to do what’s called ‘rooming in’ with her where she stays with us the entire time without going to the nursery.  So far it’s be amazing, she got up to eat twice last night with a few quick diaper changes then right back to sleep.  Wow, the fantastic noises babies make they sleep!  It was really hard for us to sleep, we kept getting up and staring.  The hospital staff is absolutely amazing and have been the shining star in this whole experience. They even gave us a double room and let me stay in the extra bed.

Jen had her IV removed last night around 3am, ending that which she called “the worst part of the labor!” (she doesn’t care for needles). She’s now fully mobile without things attached. Not feeling 100% yet but doing extremely well. Here’s a photo of the room just after breakfast, Jen’s writing up my list of Honey Do’s:
