Sophia meets Josephine!

The meet and greet at the hospital wasn't quite the bucolic experience we were hoping for. Thankfully we were able to capture one family photo before Soph caught on that this baby was here to stay.

I’m recovering quite well but want to be doing more than I probably should. The hardest thing for me has been not being able pick up Sophia., especially when she asks for "up". Josephine is doing great. She’s a champion eater and has been sleeping well at night all ready. We actually have to wake her for her nighttime snack! It’s so very tempting to just let her sleep.




It has been said that older siblings tend to regress once a new sibling takes center stage. Soph demonstrated this brilliantly during introduction time at the hospital. She was determined to take a nap in Josephine’s newborn bassinet. We let her of course. She barely fit but had a great time being rolled up and down the halls. Not surprisingly, Mike used it as a teaching moment for the residents and med students. We all got a laugh.



Josephine’s gift to Sophia was a fish tank, complete with 2 guppies, a barrel obstacle, and plant. Soph is already into the routine of greeting the “ish” in the morning and feeding them their breakfast.

More to come...
