I loved Leah’s excitement. She wanted to check everything out.

Getting a closer look.
Hanging out.
Checking out mommy’s snack.
He’s a strong boy.
Joel has been such a laid back, calm baby so far. I gave him his first manicure as his nails were so long. He was definitely had all the marks of an overdue babe.
Proud parents.
Welcome home little guy! We are so happy you are here.
Chilling in the playpen upstairs for his first nap at home followed by a diaper change.
I am thrilled to be home with our family all together. I love seeing Leah interact with Joel. I definitely missed her while we were with Joel in the hospital. Leah and I spent some great one on one time this evening playing with play dough and sorting through baby clothes together. It will be an adjustment becoming a big sister but I’m sure she’ll do great. Welcome to our family little guy. We love you more than you’ll ever know.
