We survived our first week at home with a newborn...whew!! That's doesn't mean it wasn't stressful and exhausting at times. We had a few diaper mishaps and a few sleepless nights but other then that it was a pretty good first week home.
We took Maddy to the pediatrician on Monday and she passed all the tests with flying colors. She was even back up to her birth weight which Dr. Rob was pleased with.
Madelyn's umbilical cord fell off in the middle of the night on Tuesday night so Thursday we were able to give her a real bath. She did really well and seemed to enjoy it until she had to get out of the warm water and then we saw a little temper.
We had a few days this week where the weather was really nice and the rain ceased for a while, we were able to go on our first walk as a family. I was concerned about how Jada would do with the stroller but she was great and didn't seem to mind the extra walking buddy at all.
Tomorrow we will venture to Bloomington for our first road trip with Maddy. I will update later on how the trip goes.
