Channing's First Visitors

Due to the blizzard that blew through the Midwest, we had very few visitors while we were in the hospital. Although we wished all of our family could have come to visit, it was actually kind of nice to get some rest before bringing Channing home.

Here is the view from the hospital room. It did look pretty outside....but we were glad we were stuck in the hospital! I felt bad for the nurses that were braving the bad weather to get in for their shifts. It brought back memories for me when I was a floor nurse. A lot of businesses shut down when there is bad weather, but a hospital is not one of them. Thursday morning we got the OK to head home. We found out quickly that Channing does NOT like to get dressed. She's a very easy-going baby, but if you want to make her mad, just change her outfit. Guess we won't be playing dress up for a while.


We are ready to go home & see big brother Griffin!


Channing's first visitors:



Grandpa B.


Grandma B.



Grandma & Grandpa E. & Riley


Keith, Rach & future cousin B.


Darcy, Teagan & Tate

I love this picture of the three kids sitting in the chair. Griffin is pretty sweet on Teagan. She's just a few years older than him....they'd make a cute couple someday (as long as brother Tate approves!)


The visiting nurse comes tomorrow, so we'll see how Channing is growing. She's sleeping pretty good at night, eating well, & having no trouble messing up diapers. Hubs & I are so blessed to have two beautiful healthy kids.


Oh, & thanks for all the comments, emails & text messages!
