Already?

Abri is home for her first night and it is already a sleepless night for Daddy. I mean I got the standard 2 hours of fall down exhausted sleep but it looks like I am up for the long haul now.

The routine is the same with every new baby....check to see if they are still breathing (and I only have been checking about every 5-6 seconds).

I can't believe how much I love her already. She seems like such a peaceful little soul, so innocent and pure. I just sit here imagining all of the sleepless nights she will be causing me over the course of her life.

Lucian was not sure what to think of her but definitely very curious. He already stole her "blanky."

The hard thing I guess is to sit here, alone in the dark, and think about family. I now have this entire beautiful family, that I have to protect and to love...and it just makes me want to call my Dad.......I wish that heaven was on the Verizon network!!

I do believe heaven is on a better network than Verizon. A dad who loves his girl from head to toe yet says the hard word 'no' sometimes is a true gift. Enjoy snuggle time it's over in a flash.
