We spent two nights at the hospital, plus a good portion of the next day. Luca was perfect, but we definitely both needed some time to rest and recuperate before going home. He was seen twice by a pediatrician from the practice we go to, and I was well taken care of by the nurses.
How about some pictures!
Day 2
Cute little sleeping face:

Amelia's 2nd visit to the hospital - giving Luca the stuffed elephant she picked out for him:
She also enjoyed holding him... with assistance:
First cuddle with her little brother (she's wearing the tshirt and holding the pony he got her):
We had visits on this day from Mommy's friend, Laura, and our pastor Jason and his wife Christan. Jason and Luca share a birthday!
Day 3
Chris had to take some pictures with soccer scarves...
We got Luca all dressed up in his coming-home outfit and the hospital photographer came in to do his first pictures.
I love this one I caught of Chris and Luca looking at each other:
And him cuddling on Daddy:
On our way out the door!
Getting all strapped into his car seat for the ride home:
We got home, and Amelia was SO happy to see us.
Greeting her little brother:
It was certainly nice to be all home as a family!
Grandma Dona had come down the day that Luca was born and stayed with Amelia while we were at the hospital. She so graciously stayed for another week, to help us get settled.
