Getting use to the Swing of things
Well, I didn't think I would get the chance to get all of these posted today. For some reason - I have taken very few pictures since we've been home. As far as Jorgia goes -- it may be because she's been hanging out in hospital jammies the last few days. Now that we have some of Darb's stuff washed up - the photo ops will happen more frequently. Darby Kate is an easy subject. Her little expressions crack me up!
Headed for Home Sweet Home
I had to post some of the pictures from the day we came home from the hospital. The one series of Trevor -- let me explain. That boy has the worst luck with keeping his eyes open for pictures. You will see for yourselves below. He had me cracking up in the hospital -- which is not great for a gal fresh after delivery (the pelvic floor is a little weak :) )
Our Little Girls
My my my -- how someone so tiny can make for a big change. A wonderful change, of course. Don't get me wrong -- it's not all been easy breezy. As a matter of fact, last night was one of the more difficult nights we've experienced thus far. And it wasn't with Miss Spice. Sugar decided she wanted to stay up ALL night (practically). I think she wasn't feeling 100% first of all -- and that combined with the fact that only Mommy could do anything for her made for a challenging evening. PLUS, Mommy's hormones are all wack-o, and when going from a feeding, to holding a 30 pounder, to a feeding, to a 30 pounder -- she (mommy) was definitely pushed to her limits. The Hubs would try and help, but that would only increase the ear-piercing screams. Bless her heart. Sugar did all she could to keep from getting in bed. But, there were times when she acted like everything was A-OK. She would do her little back dive into bed. Say, "night-night". And, either minutes later, or before my hand would hit the door -- she was back into hysterics. Thankfully, Spice had a perfect night. In fact, I don't think she made a peep ALL night. I would wake her up for her feedings (I know --never wake a sleeping baby, but you know I have to follow the rules........they are telling me she MUST eat at least every 3-4 hours at this point) and she would go right back to sleep. She was giving me a scare there for a couple of days. She was having very few wet diapers. Dirty diapers are plenty (like every time you look in her tiny dipe). Anyway -- she remedied that fairly quickly, and after our first doctor's visit yesterday, he said everything is looking great. (she has already gained 4 oz)
I have tons of pictures to post. I know a lot are repetitive and probably in a crazy order. I have my pictures, my mom's pictures, and hopefully soon I will post some that the SIL had taken.
The ones that I'm posting today are from the day after Spice was born!
Look Mommy -- no hands!
She is very curious
"I wanna hold her"
Is there anything sweeter?!?
Spice is enjoying some yummy chocolate cake from the hospital
I hope she brushed her teeth well that night!

Sugar was not too keen on seeing me or Spice the first day. Things took a turn on the second!
