January 3, 2001, Madeleine comes home!
Now Nancy and John have to figure this infant care thing out
without a half a dozen nurses supporting us at all hours of the day and night!
Madeleine checked out of the hospital at 7lbs. 2oz.
Nancy gets Madeleine dressed and ready for her first trip home.
Madeleine in the nursery for her official check out. At this point we were
given her bill and the nurse removed the sales tags and the anti-theft
protection from Madeleine. (I'm pretty sure it wasn't one of those dye-spewing
anti-theft devices.)
Madeleine in her car seat for the very first time. The hospital won't let
you take your baby home unless you have a car seat for her.
Nancy and Madeleine in the wheelchair in the lobby of Community Hospital with
Diane, one of the nurses who was there through Nancy's birth.
Madeleine in the car for the first time. On the floor are some flower from
my mother as well as some from Louisa Aliferis, which showed up via her brother.
John, Nancy, and Madeleine in the car together, about to head home!
In the driveway! This is the part where Nancy forgets she isn't supposed
to lift anything heavy and proceeds to take Madeleine and the car seat out of
the car.
We got the package home, time to unwrap it! The marks on Nancy's arm are
from having blood drawn in the hospital.
Of course, when there is something new in the house, the kitties have to
investigate. Oscar peeks in to see what is making those noises in what he
previously believed was meant to be his bed.
As usual, Oscar pushes in a little too far and has to be banished from the room
for a while.
