Home and adjusting...

Well, we are all home now. Campbell's bilirubin* was a little high when we got discharged from the hospital, which is not uncommon. So, she has to have this UV light thing that slips under her back to help breakdown that bilirubin. She has to have it on as much as possible, which is kind of unwieldy but not too bad.

Katie is doing much better and is up and around wonderfully. Last night was pretty sleepless, which I'm sure will be the norm, not the exception. Campbell is starting to do really well feeding, and I am so proud of Katie's patience. Bailey (our dog) is doing great with Campbell as well, being really gentle and sniffing her to figure things out. Here's a new slide show with some more pictures. Keep checking back for new ones! For now . . . its nap time.

Ben, Katie, and Campbell,
Glad to see Compton Party of three adjusting to life at home. Let us know if Parks party of four can help in any way.
