Home Sweet Home

Well it's been an adventurous couple of days! On Thursday, the doctors let Mommy and me come home earlier than originally planned. I was glad to leave the hospital and couldn't wait to see my home and meet my two crazy dogs. I like my new car seat even though I'm packed in it pretty tightly!



Life at home has had it's ups and downs. Days are spent eating, sleeping, pooping, and occasionally posing for a picture or twenty. The biggest problem is that I am so comfortable that I fall asleep for long stretches of time during the day, sleeping through scheduled meals, which makes me even more tired. The doctor says that I've lost a bit too much weight so I need to spend the next couple of days eating as much and as often as I can.

Luckily for Mommy and Daddy, since I sleep a lot during the day, nights are usually spent crying my head off for hours at a time. Another sure fire way to get me riled up is to give me a bath. Why would I like shedding my warm clothes and being wiped down with cold water?!



Fortunately, life is not all that bad at home. There are plenty of people to hold me and tell me how beautiful I am. C'mon, can you blame them?

  1. Hi Elaina!

    I used to sleep through my feedings, too and be up screaming all night. Don't worry, your parents will figure out soon, mine did! We couldn't see the video of your first bath. I'm sorry you have to endure the washcloth baths. Just wait until you can get dunked in warm water. They are the best. Mommy even puts on Portuguese music during baths. Maybe your daddy can do the same. You are really cute. It's hard to believe I was as small as you because I am a big boy now. I can't wait to meet you!!

  4. I just saw the video. Why were you screaming so much? It sounded like you were screaming for a while. Maybe when I come down, we can have a screaming contest to see who's loudest!
