Homecoming

Bapa took some wonderful pictures from the day the girls came home. It was funny that they came home April 15th - the day I was originally scheduled to have my c-section. :-) We were overwhelemed with a lot of discharge information for the girls, including a CPR class that Bapa and Grandma took for us. Then, Ellis and I had one last quiet lunch at Rockaways (nothing like a big greasy burger) and headed to pick the girls up at about 3:00 that afternoon.

My parents picked up Will from day care and brought him to the hospital so that he could really be a part of bringing his sisters home. We had a little big brother party for him with presents for the new big brother. He was SO excited to finally meet Carter and Catie - it was really adorable! I was so proud of him. Although things are not always smooth with him, and the hours from about 5 to 9pm around here are extremely hectic and tiring when handling 3 year old Will along with the girls, he has really handled their "entry" into his world fantastically well.

We gave him a camera so that he could take pictures of the girls too!

The girls slept through everything. :-)

The stomp rockets were a really big hit - and still are!
