First Days

Amelie got to meet James later in the day on Saturday. She looks suspicious here.

She got excited pretty quickly, though.

Due to his rapid entrance, James had a pretty incredible bruise on the back of his head at first. It looks to be totally gone today, thankfully.

I was ready to go home from the hospital by about 8am on Sunday. We had to wait around until nearly 11 to be discharged, though. Here we are, waiting.

James was none too thrilled about his first car ride. I had a pacifier ready just in case, but he slept the whole way so we haven't used it yet. (Amelie cried a tiny bit, but she was more than ready for her nap.)

We had to turn around and go back to the doctor on Monday to check his bilirubin levels. They're warming up his right foot for the heel stick here. 

He was just a tiny bit jaundiced, but Dr. Swofford said just to keep an eye on nursing and that we didn't need to do anything special. His color looks great today.

Two days old:
