Day 5 as parents...

The past few days have been a complete joy. My parents came up from VA to visit us in the hospital and meet their first grandchild. Jenny's family came in from DC, MD and locally to visit us as well. We were even lucky enough to have Jenny's oldest sister visit from Alaska! All the support from family and friends has really meant a lot while we were in the hospital.

So far we are getting adjusted to life at home with little Henry. The first two nights in the hospital we let him stay in the nursery with the nurses so we could catch up on some sleep. The first day home he slept about 4 hrs at night. Sunday night he slept for almost 5 hours. Monday afternoon we saw the pediatrician for the first time and she said Henry is doing well. Henry has lost 5 oz since birth and the doc thinks he has lost all he is going to lose and is starting to gain weight. We go back this Friday for our next check-up.

Many, many pix below, enjoy.
