home!

family outing! a short walk around the park (yes, he is in there). brynn is recovering really well. certain parts of her body are still trying to figure out what the heck just happened - while certain parts of my body are still screaming IMPOSSIBLE!

micah did great his first night at home. he is feeding really well. hard to turn that offer down. and, he slept in small waves most of last night culminating in a big finish of 3 hours of sleep in the baby burrito featured above. i think we did about 54 laps around the house while he slept and i stared intently and lovingly every step. he is just beautiful.

let us not forget that micah, as amazing as he is, is not the only bundle of cute and cuddly, in this house. for starters, i am here, and . . . there is copley too. copley is doing a great job of welcoming micah home. she likes to sniff around him, lick his head (we try to limit this one), and blame her farts on him (me too). she actually has a lot to gain by his being around. with micah here it is much more likely that someone is sitting on the couch ready for a dog to snuggle right in - and copley sure is a good snuggler. these two will be bust buds in no time.

we are absolutely loving our family - immediate and extended! thanks to everyone for the kind emails and notes. today we have had several of our neighbors come by with goodies and gifts. we feel very fortunate to have the support and love of so many.

love to you all!
