the day of firsts

Grandma Frankie was emotional as she held

our precious boy for the first time

(she has been amazing and soo helpful this whole week-

I don't know what we would have done without her)

on our way home from the hospital

we picked up Ame from school, so SHE was the

first to see and ride next to him in the car.

then at home...

each of the kids got their own turn

to hold him for the the first time

and each of them were soo proud and excited

especially Ash, who is officially no longer

the baby of the family

first day in the house full of craziness

first nap at home

and his first sponge bath at home

(this was the day after he arrived home)

and MANY more firsts to come
