Well, we've been home since Thursday afternoon. Zachary has been a very good sleeper and eater. Thursday night he ate at 9:30 then got up again at 2:00 and then again at 6:30. Cannot complain about that for the first night. He spent most of the day Friday sleeping while I continued to recover. Friday night he had a hard time falling asleep after eating really well so Brandon stayed up with him until about midnight. He woke up next at 4 and then at 7:30 so still good stretches of sleep in between feedings. He's been more alert today but still sleeping really well between feedings which are about every 3 hours.
Avi fed him for the first time today and did really well. She's doing great holding him and just needs frequent reminders to support his head mostly. Today she was a bit grouchy but I made sure to get down on the floor with her and read some books and spend some 1:1 time with her and we talked about how much time I need to spend with Zach right now until he gets a bit bigger and how much I needed her help and would play with her sooner if she can help me change Zach, etc.
Avi's having fun with grammy and papa John being here but on occasion doesn't want them to be the ones helping her. She's getting very excited for Christmas though and has the countdown in her head until the big day.
We'll see how tonight goes and tomorrow. I hope some warmer weather blows through here soon so we can get outside a bit without frostbite from the wind (but at least we have sunshine and not 3 feet of snow)!
Love to all and thank you for the continuing well wishes! We're all doing great! There are some new pics in the web album so don't forget to check them out too!
