The First Few Days at Home

Well, Reegan is just 5 days old now, and she has already provided numerous memories for us. In the first 72 hours since arriving home from the hospital Jess and I have laughed, cried, oohed, and aahed, and believe it or not, we've actually gotten a decent amount of sleep!

Almost everyone we've talked to or that has come over to our house to meet Reegan has asked one question in particular: How are the dogs doing with her? The answer is - GREAT! They still aren't quite sure what's going on whenever she cries and fusses, but overall Bella and Ginger have been very receptive of her. Bella even tried to get on some play time with Reegan the other night...


I think the one thing that Jess and I have both gotten the biggest thrill out of is just seeing her make funny faces and squirm and twist while she's sleeping. We think she may already have dreams of being a dancer or performer of some kind based on the pose in this picture...

The other thing that has simply amazed us since getting home is Reegan's uncanny ability to get onto her side when she's sleeping. Jess had propped her up on the pillow on our couch, and a short time later this is what had happened...

This is quite possibly the cutest, most adorable face I've ever seen (a little biased of course). We have been thoroughly enjoying our time so far. The ride is only beginning and we can't wait for every turn!
