We are home, all 5 of us!

Today we came home from the hospital and I don't feel like writing so here are a few photos from our day.

This picture is for Auntie Cheryl.... these are my asian eyes.

This is Auntie Ev, my sister, I am so loved! She and my brother (in-law) came out for a few days to hang out with us and meet the new baby.

Before we left the hospital... I had to get shot up :). This is us leaving the hospital.

We had a little drama getting the baby in the car seat! He is so small. He actually lost weight before we left the hospital, so he now weighs only 5 lbs and 13oz. He is so small.

SO cute! My oldest, Kassidy was born at 5 lbs 13oz and dropped to 5 lbs 8oz by the time we left. I remember thinking she was the tiniest baby EVER! LOL He'll be huge before you know it! LOL

from that pic of you guys putting him in his car seat, you already look like great parents. ;)
oh & don't worry, i'm sure people have told you this but it's normal for babies to lose weight at first...i'm sure he'll gain it back quickly. it must feel so special to go home with your new baby just in time for Christmas. ~s

Yeah Alyssa! He is precious! I would love to talk mommy talk sometime. It is such a special and awkward time in those beginning days, weeks, as I'm sure you are finding out. Miss you! Congratulations!
Love, Andrea

He is so cute! The carseat is always an adventure and it only gets better as they get older. Enjoy every moment because before you know it he will be walking and talking! Oh and Xaris says that she promises she will not teach him her bad habit of licking bricks when she sees him. Miss you and have amn amazing Christmas!

Congratulations again you guys! He's too cute. Ours was little munchkin too...just 6 lbs. 6 oz. The first words that came out of my mouth when the doctor held her up were, "She's so small!!" :) Don't worry, it doesn't last long! Enjoy these first few days and weeks at home. I'm sure they'll be crazy, but enjoy it because they change so quickly.
