Homecoming

We brought Makenna home from the hospital on Wednesday, April 14, 2010. Kylee and grandma met us at home. They surprised us with cupcakes, and Kylee sung Happy Birthday to her baby sister.

Makenna seems to be settling in well at home. She is a very easy going, content baby. She takes lots of naps during the day but also already has a lot of awake/alert time. She spends her alert time quietly listening to everything around her. You can tell by her eyes that she's really trying to listen and localize sounds. Like most newborns, she goes crossed eyed trying to focus on your face when you talk to her, which is absolutely adorable. She sleeps for about 3 hours at a time a night before waking up to eat. There have been a few times that I've even had to wake her up to feed her.

Makenna seems to really like being held close and walked around where she can see whats going on. So, I think I'm going to try out the Hostling sling this week.
