1st Day at Home

September 12th was our first day home. We started off the day with cuddles in bed and the boys playing peek-a-boo. I am just loving watching Hudson interact with Luc. Then we weighed Luc. Hudson of course wanted in on the action, haha. Can you believe how big he is?!! We stuck Luc on with his hospital shirt on just to get an idea and he weighed 7 pounds 11 ounces so we were feeling pretty good about his nursing. 

Hud is loving his new doctor gift. He performed check ups on dada and Luc. Luc has been much more alert today and eating really well. He has also been really content which is the best feeling. Luc gets hiccups after almost every feeding which is funny because he had them a ton in my belly too. Hudson rarely had hiccups in my belly and after he was born. So interesting how little differences between them started so early on. I'm interested to see other differences emerge because looks wise it is like deja vu. Luc looks exactly like his big bro. 

I know it was only our first day home, but I am already so different this time around. With Hudson I was in so much pain, completely exhausted, freaked out because of Hud's jaundice and weight issues, and was perfectly happy just sitting on the couch all day for the first month (after the first few weeks of around the clock feeding/pumping marathons). This time I am so used to getting out of the house every day with Hud, plus I am feeling great so I was already getting a bit stir crazy, I decided to set up the stroller and have us go for a walk to the park. By the time we got the stroller set up, both boys fed and ready though, it was so HOT out. We just did a quick walk up and down our street instead. Hudson was pretty excited about his new seat on the stroller and Luc seemed to enjoy the fresh air. I was so happy to be outside even if it was only for a few minutes. :) When we got back we managed to get both boys to sleep at the same time so Nic and I took a nap ourselves! 

That night, Auntie Beena came over and made us Chicken Altogether for dinner. It was delicious and so nice to have one of our favorite meals prepared for us. All in all, our first day home as a family was a success!!
