Our First Days Home

We have been home for five days now, and the newness still hasn't worn off.  The kids love playing with her and love holding her.  With five of us around always wanting to have our share of this little princess, it's a wonder she ever gets put down! 
Naomi's first bath - in the duck tub, just like her brother and sister had.
It was pretty traumatizing.
Trying to comfort their sister after daddy was so mean to her.
That's one big cat!
Getting some brotherly love.
Showing her big sister just who's boss.
Daddy's fly fishing buddy.

Now that's a big yawn!
UK baby - Go Cats!

Everyone seems to be adjusting well.  Naomi is very much like her sister and loves to sleep.  We do try to keep her awake for periods during the day, and it seems to be working.  She only requires one feeding at night, though the last two nights she's been up for a good 2 hours when she does want to eat.  But, I can't complain - everyone is a great help.  David and Mom split the cooking duties, and the kids have been helpful cleaning up and entertaining Naomi when she is awake.  We have truly been blessed.

Glad things are all going well and that she is a sleeper!
