Homecoming Pictures

In response to the clamor out there for more pictures, here is an album of our pictures from Jacob's homecoming last night.


As a further update, we went to the doctor today, who told us that Jacob is looking good. He was down one ounce from his birth weight, now at 5 pounds 11.5 ounces. His jaundice is pretty much gone, and basically, he got a clean bill of health.

Our first night home was not too bad at all. We were up a little late, mostly because so was Jacob. He was up for a 10pm feeding, and didn't shut his eyes until after he was fed at 1, but was totally quiet and docile the whole time. Unreal. He woke us up for a feeding around 4, and we all kind of got up around the same time this morning at 7. Sleep deprivation hasn't hit yet, so we're still doing pretty well at this.

Lauren continues to be a trooper, as we did just a bit of wandering around the neighborhood. We popped by our friend Victoria's place - Victoria was pregnant at the same time as Lauren and had her son Adam about 2 months ago. You can see him in the pictures, and by comparison, he looks HUUUUUGE!!! I can't believe that Jacob will ever get that big, but people assure me it's true.

We're going to try to keep catching rest where we can, but I gotta say that Jacob has been very well behaved. I wish he would eat a bit more frequently, but all in all, I think things are progressing swimmingly.

Everyone have a great Memorial Day weekend, and we'll try to keep your thirst for Jacob pictures quenched.
