Coming Home

We left the hospital on Sunday Oct. 4th. It was a nice feeling. I was ready to be in my own home, sleeping in my own bed. The hospital wasn't the easiest experience after the birth. I loved getting Jenna dressed in her own clothes. She looked so cute. She came home in a little ladybug outfit. She is mommy's little lady for sure.

Jenna makes the funniest facial expressions.
Each picture has a different face!

Her favorite most common face is the scowl. She furrows that little brow of hers and looks like she's concentrating hard on something. She makes it the most when she is feeding. It's like she has to think really hard about what she's doing. It is serious business!

Jenna loves snuggling up with daddy. Daddy loves it too!

Trying out the car seat for the first time.
She looks pretty warm and snug!

Happy to be home at last! We make such a cute family!

We got home and were glad to have visitors. Austin's parents made the 4 hour drive from St. George to come and spend a few hours with us only to turn around and drive the 4 hours back home. A long day for them, but we are grateful they made the trek to come see their newest grandchild.

A proud Grandma and Grandpa Cowley

Aunt Whitney came to visit too!

Josh and Lisa brought Mallory over to see the baby. My mom and little sister Eliza also came to bring us dinner. Lisa said that as they got out of the car Mallory said, "I cited!" She is a cutie! Because of the flu season starting, the hospital has made a policy that no one under the age of 14 is aloud to come onto the Labor/Delivery or the Mother/Baby floors. So Mallory couldn't come to the hospital to see Jenna. She came in and sat next to my mom and said, "I hold Jenna." Mallory held her arms out and my mom helped her hold the baby. After about 30 seconds, she turns to me and says, "Mimi, I want the care bear." She was done.
