Finding our rhythm.

As Simon has been saying over and over, "I am so glad she's here."
We made the transition from hospital to home on Friday afternoon and spent the rest of the weekend just hanging out. Thank you so much for all the well-wishes and kind words. We are all really just so excited.
Lots of getting to know you moments. So far she is quite the little sleeper and quite the nurser - her two favorite activities. She is also really good at snuggling.
Simon is super protective of her. He makes sure to let me know that she needs help and gets very concerned when she appears to be in distress. Chris and I have had lots of "shared-look" moments as we watch Simon talk to her, tell her about whatever is on his mind at the moment, and show her his toys.
Keeping it very low key this week. Working on healing myself as I learn all about this sweet girl. Feeling really good overall (the meds definitely help this along) and taking things as easy as I can.

If she smells half as good as she looks, you are one lucky mama. Enjoy.

"...show her his toys."
Tears in my eyes with this one phrase. What an absolute sweetheart he is. Kids have a language all their own and he already knows that. So happy for all of you, Ali.

What a beautiful little girl. You have a lovely family. Congratulations to you and Chris on your growing family. Take care of yourself, your healing could be difficult if you do to much. Take this time to rest and enjoy your children. Best Wishes.

Oh Simon is such a wonderful big brother. I can only hope that my Simon does as well when his turn comes. (not for a couple of years I think)
Many blessings to you and yours in the weeks to come. :)
