Recap of our first weekend (part 1)...

OK, so things are starting to calm down a bit. I feel like for the last week, our lives have never moved faster and we have never been busier--and those are probably 100% true.

Laura and Hannah came home Friday, a day earlier than anybody really expected. But Laura was ready because she spent Tuesday night in there before inducing labor Wednesday morning. From where I left off with the hospital update, with all of the medication to induce Laura, by 11am she was having strong contractions and was barely 1cm dilated. The doc saw this coming and at the 8am check-in, had Laura sign all the necessary paperwork to prepare for a C-section and that decision would be made at 11am--which it was. As it turns out, Hannah was Sunny-side Up and had the cord wrapped around her neck, so good call by the doctor.

My parents come down Saturday and left this afternoon. They were a big help in not only doing a few things around the house, but help make some dinners as well. Everyday, I have sat down for maybe an hour or two and then I was reading some of the mounds of papers and pamphlets given to us from breast pumps to birth certificates.

I'm supposed to go to work for a half day in the morning so I'll continue this tomorrow (I hope).
