Bright Eyed Girl

We've been home a few days now, and things are going great! Ava is eating great, and her nighttime routine is getting much better! The first night she kept Daddy up ALOT. The second night she still got up several times. However, last night only 2 times! She got up once around Midnight. I fed & changed her and cuddled her for a little while and she dozed back off. She didn't wake up again until about 5:00 this morning. Again, after a feeding and a dry diaper she went back to sleep and actually let Mommy sleep until 8:00 this morning!!!! I actually got more sleep last night than I did during the last few weeks of pregnancy.
I am thoroughly enjoying being here with her everyday. She is staying awake more with me now which is fun! It's killing daddy having to be away from her at work during the day, even though he usually checks in on us a few times. As soon as he gets home in the evenings he snatches her up and starts cuddling and playing with her. It is soo cute!



Nana finally got to get her hands on Ava yesterday! She had seen her at the hospital but only through the nursery window. Granny P and Papa Mike brought Nana with them to visit yesterday and Nana got to hold Ava for a long while. Her eyes just lit up as she was holding her! We also had a visit from Nana and Papa Smith yesterday evening as well. After a few minutes of tickling and such we finally got her to wake up so they look at those pretty eyes!
