I've never been so proud of her little dookie before! It worked like a charm! I think I'm going to try Marley & Biel next.

poop, baby, poop!
Some friends of ours (and my mom) said when your infant fusses and squirms after being fed you can hover them over a toilet and they'll poop. I totally scoffed at the idea, until I tried it today. Charlie wouldn't stop crying and squirming AND i was really bored, so I thought I'd give it a try.

please go to bed?
its 12:35 in the morning. we didn't want to stay up this late. i was planning on going to class tomorrow morning, before I had to go back to work.
but NOOOOOOOOO, charlie just wants to cry. what gives? she was the perfect little angel the past week in the hospital. erin davis says she's probably just adjusting to her new environment. yeah, that must be it.
...you want another bottle? no?
...you want more play time with marley & biel? no?
...you want a lullaby? yeah that's it! wait, nope.
...you want to be bounced and held all night by erin & kyle? yep! :)

bye bye, hospital bed!
hasta la vista, NICU! This was Charlie's bed for the last 7 days. Heart monitors, an oxygen sensor and an IV accompanied every minute of her stay.

Doctors gave her a clean bill of health and she was officially discharged this afternoon. Wanna know the best part? As it turned out she never even had an infection. Go figure.
csection: ~ $10K
a full week in NICU: ~ $10K
good health insurance: priceless

dogs, meet Charlie. Charlie, meet dogs
This was pretty hilarious... Erin was totally convinced Biel was gonna chomp on Charlie's face. Yeah, RIGHT. My dogs are Charlie's body guards now. You should have seen their faces the first time Charlie cried! Now every time Charlie so much as moves a muscle, Biel whines a little and does this soldier crawl to get closer to her and investigate. Pretty freaking adorable.

diapers.
we brought baby home at 1:30 pm today.
...ten diapers later, its 11:30 pm.
We're thinking about changing the word 'hour' to diaper as a means to tell time. You know, like 'babe you'd better hurry up and get ready, church starts in 2 1/2 diapers'... or 'last night's yankees game was 9 diapers long and set a new american league record'
ugh.
