We are so thrilled to finally have our baby girl!

We got home from the hospital today and have been doing pretty well so far. Nora is beautiful (the photos don't do her justice...the flash makes her red eyelid appear a lot darker than it actually is) and so far has been sleeping most of the time.

It's nice that she's so peaceful, except that her sleepiness has made nursing a little challenging. You'll be happy to know that Nora's pediatrician, pronounced her in excellent health before discharging her from the hospital.

We are to go in Monday for a weight check since we are breastfeeding. He commented that her skin color looks great. No sign of jaundice at all!

Nora's Birth Stats: Nora is in the 67th percentile in weight. This means that she weighs the same or more than 67 percent of babies the same age. Nora is in the 86th percentile in length. This means that her length is the same or more than 86 percent of babies the same age.
