Claire's First Week, Part One

We were in the hospital through Saturday, and had several visitors, including both sets of Robert's grandparents, Courtney & Jared (who welcomed their own new baby on Friday, April 11th - Claire already has a playmate!), Jennie, Lindsay, and Miss Kristy.

Grandma Pat (Amy's mom) was there every day - Claire loves snuggling with her!

We had originally planned for Claire to exclusively nurse, but she had a few problems getting the technique down and was losing too much weight, so we started feeding her formula. Daddy quickly became a pro with the bottles. We're still working on nursing and met with a few lactation consultants. It's hard work for both of us, but we're hopeful that we'll get there with lots of practice!

Easily the cutest baby at Presby :)

Getting some good snuggle time with Daddy - Mommy needed a break from the hospital bed!
