Ashley is 1 day old!

Day two in the hospital had Sara up and walking - doing laps around the hospital floor at 6am!  Boy did that feel good but the nurses were in shock.  Apparently that's not typical 18 hours after a c-section.  Little did they know that Sara only had one goal in mind and that was to eat normal food.  She didn't want any more broth or jello.  She wanted real food.  After a few laps she got the all clear to order whatever she wanted, and she did!  Pancakes!!!! Yum!!
 Trevor, Nana Jeanne and Papa Steve visited in the morning before Trevor went to preschool.  Trevor was very into baby sister but this time baby sister wasn't having it!
 He's like, what is wrong with her??
 Make her stop crying please!

 Well after school the gang came back and Ashley was happy to see her big brother and Trevor was SO excited to see his baby sister.  Kisses all around!
 He just kept looking at her and touching her hands.  She grabbed right on to his fingers.  Precious!
After all of the visitors our princess was tired so we put on the first outfit we bought her.  We bought a gender neutral outfit even though we knew at the time we were having a girl so as to not let on to anyone that we knew so early!  Love the touchdown pose!
 Lots of rest and walking the rest of Tuesday at the hospital.  Mommy would walk and Ashley would rest in her bassinet being pushed by Mommy!
 We brought our sleep sheep music so that Ashley would get used to the ocean sound.  She loved it just like Trevor and the girl would sleep.  At night the nurses would swaddle her up and after a non-stop feeding frenzy for 3 hours, she impressed us all and slept for 4.5 hours!  Now if only the nurses would stop coming in to monitor Mommy we would have all gotten some sleep!
 Mommy and Daddy weren't so good at swaddling with the hospital blanket so in the middle of the night we broke out the HALO swaddle blanket that Trevor's hospital used.  Gosh is she a cutie.  Blessed!!
