Quinto día de Lydia


Day five finds the Brown family adjusting nicely to its new rut. Rowan was particularly happy this morning when we arrived at school, for there were two red fire engines out front. It seems one of the children had an allergic reaction to something they ate which clearly requires a minimum of two emergency vehicles. Rowan's initial excitement was dampened when he found that Lola was not in class today, as she was home with a stomach ailment. Poor Lola, we hope you're better soon.

Our home care nurse visit was this afternoon and we found that Lydia gained 4 oz. since yesterday! Her weight was a little low compared to her birth weight, but now it all checks out fine. The nurse was also mighty impressed with her hat, which awkwardly is not shown in the above photo. The photo's hat is similarly cute so it has been substituted.

Marmie, Papa, Major Skffington, Fitzy, and George all returned to Indy today after a helpful visit begining the day before Lydia's arrival. As Angela said in a prior post, all played a big part in Lydia's arrival and I'd like to add my own thanks to them. I would most like to thank Marmie for her support of us in the delivery room and Joe for making a kick-ass chicken pot pie for the Superbowl.
