Karter finally made it home yesterday around 10:30am. We were so anxious to get out of the hospital. We were there for about three and a half days. Karter slept the entire fifteen minute car ride from Hastings to Hampton, so he missed all of the sights and sounds of his new town and home for the first few minutes.
But...he made up for it last night! As Dana's mom, Vicky, says: "Welcome to parenthood!" Karter woke up around 8-10 times last night after we went to bed. Dana and I tried to alternate getting up - but over half of the time, he wanted food. Right now, that's something that only Mommy can provide.
Needless to say, we are a little sleepy today...but overall, it was not too bad. By the end of the night, we could kind of tell what he needed: diaper change, pacifier, food, or just to be held. All in all, the first night at home went great!
It is so nice to be home - with regular meals (thank you, Vicky) and a much more comfortable bed where Dana and I can sleep with eachother. No guests at home yet, but we do expect some tomorrow and over the weekend! We can't wait to share him with the rest of the world!!
