We're home!

Wow! I can hardly believe it. We are home with our beautiful baby girl! We have been waiting so long and now the time has finally arrived. Now we are all getting adjusted to life with a new baby. It has been an awesome couple days. Emma was a little jaundiced (yellow), so we had a bililight that she had to wear around her. We had blood drawn wed am and thurs am to check her levels. Thursdays level came back good, so we got to take the light off and we go to the doctor in the am to have her weight checked and so they can make sure she looks ok.
It has been a major adjustment for Kramer (the dog). He still isn't sure what to think of this little person we have brought home. He is very interested in her, but when we first brought her home and she would cry he would bark. What a noisy house we had! He doesn't bark too much anymore when she cries, but if she makes any noise he goes over and checks things out. He will still whimper if she is making noise, but he is getting better.
Well, she just ate and is sleeping, so that's my sign to go get a little sleep until she wakes up again in a couple hours...
