homecoming




So we made the strange journey from hospital to home again with a completely new set of emotions. with Schuyler, we came home and realised rather belatedly that we were the only ones in charge of this baby and it was not going away. consequently, we were a little spun out, scared, dazed and confused. in fact, we were back in the hospital the very next day because she wasn't eating and had no wet diapers. it was a very, very trying time.
This homecoming was happily different. we came home as seasoned parents and a feeding baby. Magic gave Charlie his traditional welcome and we all got on with our day (and long nights). It's still a major challege to adjust to the extra mouth to feed but nowhere near the seismic shift of the first.
