Aislyn Kate
Day three in the hospital brought us more visitors and another great day with our healthy baby girl. Brayden stayed with Gramie and Papa the first two nights in the hopital. The nurse mid-wife decided I was doing great and could go home that day. So, we planned on having Brayden come that evening with my parents. Before Faron arrived that morning, Aunt katie stopped by and saw Aislyn and I before work. Other friends that visited were Rob and Charity and Manny and Heidi. 
We left our nurses with some baskets of candy as a Thank you and were out the door and ready to have our Big Brother Party once we got home. I was both excited and nervous to bring Aislyn home. It's been awhile since I've had a newborn and my first time taking care of two kids. But thankfully I have a fantastic husband who is so hands onwith the kids and was such a great help. 
We wanted to make brayden feel excited about the baby coming home, without it be all about the baby, so with my sister's suggestion, we did a "big brother" party and picked up a cake on the way home. We had gotten a gifts from bray to the baby and a gift for bray from Aislyn and the exchanged them after we had cake.
We were waiting to see Dr. Orezzoli to come and see Aislyn. He had been off over the weekend and another doctor was covering for him. He was running behind and said we could be discharged without his seeing her, and we would just see him in one week. We decided to head out that night, so got our stuff together. Before we left Aislyn had her hospital pictures taken. These are not what that use to be. They turned out so cute! And we had fun dressing her up. Gramie and Papa arrived with Brayden and we visited for a while. Once we were all packed and everything was in the car we put Aislyn in her coming home outfit and took some pictures.

Aislyn was awake just a little while we were home and never cried. She just snorts and grunts to let you know she needs something. She is such a calm and sweet baby.It felt awesome to have her at home and the first night wasn't bad. I only had to get up once with her that night and was up early the next morning. It was fun to have her already home on the day I was supose to deliver her( tues 11/23/10).
