Giulio is One Week Old!

Giulio is one week old today.  It's been an exciting week.  We escaped from the hospital a bit early and were home by Wednesday afternoon.  I did not find my hospital stay restful and felt much better being home even without the support of the nursery and OB's down the hall. 
Ready to go home for the first time!

Olney came and visited just for the weekend while Fabri was home all day to help.  He found every noise Giulio made disconcerting at first, but by Sunday evening, Olney was getting used to ignoring him. 

Olney says "what's happened to my life!?"

Giulio really likes staying in the BabyBjorn with Daddy and I have to say that Fabri loves it too.  There are lots of silly BabyBjorn dances happening around here.

We're looking forward to Grandma & Grandpa arriving on Thursday and to becoming better breast feeders...

Nesting Part 2

Here are the photos from our forest themed nursery.  I wanted to do a forest theme because I didn't want to change the wall color or curtains in the room.  Its hard to tell, but those are entomology curtains!
It looks dark here, but this is the sunniest room in the house

Loving all the Carter's Forest Friends cuteness!  My Mom made me that animal embroidery to the right back when I was born.

We moved the sofa all the way around the room to leave it back where we started!
