We survived our first night alone

Last night was our first night without the help or nurses or family. We survived! Luke took pity on us and slept really well. I put him down at 10pm and had to wake him at 1am and then again at 4am for feedings. He woke up by himself at 6:30am for another feeding, but then went back to sleep pretty easily. I think I may have gotten 6-6.5 hours of sleep last night!! That's by far the most sleep I've gotten in a night in the past 2 weeks. My body is in shock.

A nurse came by today for another weight check on Luke. He's now up to 5 pounds 8 ounces!!!!!! We are thrilled. He even has some fullnes in his cheeks. His color is so so so much better and the skin is no longer hanging off of his legs and arms. He looks so healthy:)

In other news, his umbilical cord fell off this morning! We are glad to say goodbye to that. Oh, and yesterday David and I discovered what projectile poop is. The new carpet in his bedroom is officially broken in:)
