What a First Week!
It has been quite a crazy first week for Kate! She's been to the Dr (multiple times) and had her heels pricked, been treated for jaundice, taken her first sponge bath, had a 1 week photo shoot, taken her first Saturday trip to Starbucks, and has just been practicing being cute in general.
Dad trying to console me while that nurse tries to get a pint of blood out of my tiny foot. My lungs work great!!
Looking comfy on my Bili-Bed - No more jaundice - Yay!!
Sponge baths aren't much fun, but I like the nice hooded towel at the end.
Gotta start early! Make mine a Latte!
Dad is teaching me how to blog for myself!

Meet Baby Kate!
Jennifer went to work on Thursday morning thinking it was just another day. Around 6PM, Kate decided that we both needed a long weekend as her first anniversary present to us. We arrived at Baptist Hospital in Columbia just before 9:00PM Thursday night. Laura Katherine Meredith (Kate) was born at 4:10AM on December 12th, 2008. She's a healthy and happy 6lb 8oz, 20in little girl. We've posted some of our favorite photos below covering her first moments with us through the trip home today.
Kate got to meet Grandma on Friday.

This is the photo that the hospital photographer shot of Kate. Don't be fooled - many tears were shed before she snuck this shot in.
Sunday morning around noon we were cleared to head home. I couldn't carry any more bags - trust me, I tried.
At first, Kate wasn't too excited about leaving the hospital.
Jenny convinced Kate that meeting Foster was worth the trip.
The parade through the hospital.
Foster isn't sure what to think. Can she throw a Frisbee?
Smokey's world has been turned upside down after Kate's arrival. Nevermind - he's always laying on his back.
This is Kate's first photo with Jenny.

The new happy family.
Kate likes snoozing on her Boppy.
