Homecoming

Time to head home! I don't know why the checking out procedure always takes so long. We were in the hospital 2 1/2 days. The last 1/2 day was just waiting and waiting and waiting to get the OK to go home. Finally we made it though. We were happy to be back to our own bed, house, and beagles.








Danny was proud of his new shirt and new sister. Matt was convinced the hospital wouldn't let us go home sooner because we hadn't yet purchased anything from the gift shop. Sure enough, once he bought the big brother t-shirt, we got out of there really quick.A few thoughtful gifts welcomed us home. Thanks Billings and Grandma Maria for the beautiful bouquets!! Also, a huge thanks for the meals & goodies several people have brought by. Danny REALLY loved the cookie bouquet!!

Finally settling in . . . home sweet home.

You're right! It takes forever to get out of the darn hospital. Maybe we need to buy something from the gift shop, never tried that before! I always forget how small babies are. Kaylee makes Danny seem so huge. Enjoy being back home.

Sorry it took so long to get out of the hospital. As a postpartum nurse, I can tell you exactly why it took so long, your nurse was probably busy with other patients. Sorry, I know that doesn't make it better. I always feel bad when I know people are waiting for me.

Kaylee is so cute and tiny! I love the signs on the garage and the cookies are amazing! What a nice welcome home-I also love the sash(a la Ms. America) you're wearing-very cute!
