Home Sweet Home

We were discharged from the hospital on the Monday morning following the birth, and boy were we ready to get home! I missed Jade so much and couldn't wait to start functioning as a family of four! I'm so thankful for my parents and all they did for both Jade and us while we were in the hospital. Coming home to a clean house with a stocked pantry and fridge, meals in the freezer and a super happy and well taken care of 2 year old felt amazing!

First time in the car seat! 

So peaceful!

Ready to go home!

Here are a few pictures from our first week at home! Jemma spends most of her time eating, sleeping or pooping. Jade gets pretty excited when she is actually awake!

So far, Jemma enjoys her swing and will nap in it.

Sissy, wake up!

Sweet sleepy smile!

Deep in thought!

Sweet dreamin'!

Eyes are open!

So far, things are going pretty well at home. Nate was off all last week, which was great to help get adjusted. Jemma has proven to be a pretty easy going! Her main fussy time is between 8 and 9:30 p.m. She usually will go down for bed shortly after her 9:30 feeding and will usually sleep until 2:00/2:30 ish! She typically will go back to sleep pretty easily until about 5:30/6:00 a.m. 

Jade is doing amazing! She hasn't seemed jealous at all, she brings me things for Jemma when I ask for her help and her voluntarily kisses are so sweet! She is generally very concerned about where sissy is and doesn't seem to be phased by her crying. 

Reading library books with daddy!

 Blue dresses (Cinderella too)!

 My big girl!
