Acclimation…

OK we have been home now about 27 hours and feel like old pros! Yeah right but we managed to get some sleep and feed the little bugger Finn a whole lot. Cindy has done a great job preparing us for this onslaught of poop, noise, and use of the 38 new pieces of furniture in our house (you know I love you Cindy).

It has been quite amazing weaving Finn into our lives. We still have some work to do in order to get him eating correctly but it is fun that I get to feed him too. This is typical of early newborns so we are just rolling with it enjoying the ride while keeping him fed.

Ollie is curious about the whole thing, he appears to like Finn though as he tries to lick him whenever he gets the chance. He has stolen Finn’s toys, watched curiously as he eats, watched him sleep and chirp as in the pack-n-play behind the sofa, came to alert when he cries at 3:30am. All these things are great in that he is just showing he has no idea what the heck is going on but really wants to figure it out. Ollie even got a bath today so he must know life can’t be too off-kilter.

Grandma and Grandpa Dub came over tonight and shared something interesting…a newborn picture of Brian. Cindy and I KNEW this guy looked familiar to us when the Dr. first showed him to us. It was uncanny, hard to explain the feeling, but we may know why. Can you pick Finn from Brian from these two newborn pictures?

Anyway, this post is just an excuse to post more pictures…here are a few more from our first 24 hours at home.
