11. Thank you, djeseru!
Me too! 8lbs 12oz is a pretty hefty...My oldest was 8lbs 10oz, and the younger seemed so much easier at 8lbs 9oz. Every little bit counts!

28. They're several hours away from us...
We're hoping to go out for a visit after things calm down a bit.
There's nothing like the sweet smell of a baby!

They live about 7 hours away; and we want them to feel a little more settled before we descend upon them. :D
