Day One

We had a great first day with Allison. She's eating like a champ, really bonding with Mom, and Dad has changed two full diapers! Grandma (Gram) & Grandpa Goedeke, Aunts Liz & Laura, and Uncles Mike & Bill all came to visit!

We picked up a copy of yesterdays Trenton Times, USA Today, and the Wall Street Journal to mark the day. The Times had the best headline, saying 'A Historic Night'! Thursday night definitely was. :)

Jen & I felt bad, but we asked the nurses if Allison could spend the night in the nursery room so that we could recharge our batteries for some rest. I have to say it really helped, and she rejoined us at 6 AM.

Today Grandma Waters and Aunt Roche will come to visit all the way from north NJ.

It's a rainy day outside, but theres nowhere else we'd rather be than here with Allison!
