One week.

WOW! Its hard to believe that one week ago little Brooklynn was being "plucked" from her home of 9 + months and being handed to her new Daddy. We're not biased at all, But we think she's the cutest thing in the world! We love being parents and all the challenges that come with it! We were both very nervous at first, and still have our butterflies at times but we are learning as we go and honestly loving every minute of it. No one really tells you how nerve racking leaving the hospital really is, you are so excited to go home and sleep (so you think) in your own house, but driving your new precious cargo home and having to watch stupid drivers around you is so scary. Then you get home and the real nerves set in.

Leaving the Hospital

The first night home from the hospital was quite exciting. For some reason we both had the idea that she'd come home and sleep well.... She didn't.. We were both up with her most of the night, but night after night she has gotten better at sleeping at night after eating.. You don't realize how nice it is to have a nursery that will help put baby to sleep. However, We LOVE having her at home and can't get enough of watching her every move.

4 Generations: Great Grandma, Grandma, Amy & Brooklynn

Grandma and Grandpa Green

She has had lots of family visitors , her two sets of grandparents, and two sets of great grandparents, and they all say she is the cutest.. which is to expect, It's what they all say. Daddy thinks shes cute too, He really can't get enough of her.. When she is awake she loves to just look around and explore her new world, and when she is sleeping she makes the funniest faces.. cant wait for them to start when she is awake and playful. She has had two baths so far, they aren't her favorite, but then again she hates having her diaper changed too..
We love her tons and tons and are excited to see what the future holds for our new family.
My mom has been here to help out around the house and keep me from doing to much..(anything really) but i guess that's what happens when you get a major abdominal surgery, Right? We love having her here, she is a life saver, and a great cook! I am recovering well, and taking it easy to make sure I don't over do it, but feeling pretty good most of the time..
Thanks for all the well wishes and congrats.
