Yesterday was a great day! Uma and Upa took over watching Ethan early yesterday morning so Brian could come to the hospital and help Lucas and I get checked out. We'd been so lucky to have been visited by Michelle and Benji, Vanderpool, and Summer, Brandon, and Payton. It was fun to show off our little sleeper and definitely broke up the monotony of the boring weekend TV. We were discharged around 10:30 and came home to a beautiful sign on the door and a very curious big brother. Ethan checked on him lots and patted his little head. Lucas just slept and slept and slept.
My parents pampered us, Jess and Todd came to see the little man, and Ethan turned into a bit of a green-eyed monster. We're all trying to make him feel special, but he can apparently see through the manipulation. He spent the latter part of the evening curled up in the baby's swing with his blankie repeating the word "mine" quietly. He will adjust, I know, but my goodness! Right now he's trying to make as much noise as humanly possible while Lucas is sleeping.
The night went well, except that during the day Lucas goes 3-4 hours between feeding and at night, 2. He also saved all his "dirty" diapers for the middle of the night. Fabulous! But all in all, it was pretty easy- Ethan only really woke up once and went right back to sleep with a hug and a kiss from Daddy.
Today we plan to rest and relax. We're taking a non-labor day and just playing and sleeping. We'll be around for anyone that wants to call- we just won't answer if we're sleeping or busy. Happy Day!
