Abigail- Welcome to our crazy family!

Abigail will be two weeks old tomorrow- someone tell me how to make time stand still! She is such a little snugglebug : ) We had an interesting first week home, with Abigail having to be re-admitted to the hospital for 24 hours for high bilirubin levels. When she was 5 days old, she received phototherapy over night and most of the next day- from lights above her and a light blanket that she had to lay on at all times. I stayed with her in the hospital, and it was hard not being able to pick her up and snuggle her, but thankfully after a night of sleeping under the lights, she improved and we got to go home! It has been nicely uneventful since then, with lots of baby snuggles and attention from her big brothers.

Max and Jack have been very interested in Abigail since the moment they met her! Justin and I couldn't wait to bring her home from the hospital and introduce her to her brothers.

Getting all packed up and ready to leave the hospital!

Jack was napping when we got home, so Max got to meet Abigail first!

 Abigail gets lots of kisses : )

 
Max was happy to have Daddy home- project time!
They put together our amazing double stroller while we waited for Jackson to wake up.

Finally, Jack woke up and came downstairs to find that his life had changed forever haha! It's hard to believe Jack is a big brother. He's still my baby boy... except when I got home from the hospital after holding Abigail for two days, he looked HUGE to me and like such a little man!



Jack is VERY interested in her face- constantly pointing out her eyes, mouth, hair etc.
 We are trying to teach him to be gentle about it ; )


 Meanwhile on the other side of the room..... 

Our Family!


Okay enough posing for pictures, back to play time!

If you have little boys, I'm sure you understand that clothes can be so restrictive at times...





 It's so nice having visitors- lots of people to snuggle Abigail!
 
 "Look, this is easy.."

"But this is easier!"

Since then, we've just been playing with the boys, and taking pics of Abigail's cute facial expressions. It's a pretty good life.
 
Max likes to line up soft toys for Abigail to "play with". She always has LOTS of choices!

The good life.


Hi everyone : )
