1 Week

Kai is 1 week old today.
This is the suitcase that my Grandma Mckean, my mom and I have all taken to the hospital to have our babies. That makes for 16 babies!

We came home from the hospital Friday night to an excited house with probably EIGHT 'Welcome Home' posters made by Annabelle (and a couple by Asa).
Here we are a few minutes after we got home.
The first several days at home Kai barely made a peep so long as he was swaddled. Today he seemed to be content even when he had kicked himself free from blankets. He is a good sleeper, a great eater and an even better snuggler.
On Sunday we went to church (just for Sacrament Meeting). He seemed extra peaceful as he lay awake for most of the meeting.
It has been a wonderful first week. My mother-in-law is here taking care of us all, taking care of all of the regular household duties so that I can take it easy. I hope that the days won't rush by, I am so in love with this little one already!

Tia, you are beautiful. And your little Kai is adorable. I love that generations of women have all used the same suitcase for their confinement, that is a treasure.

I love that you named him Kai! I love that name! It's the name of a really cool character in this book I've been working on for a long time now. I think he looks like Asa! I'm glad you are happy and doing good! I hope I get to meet your new little one someday!
