Home Sweet Home

Marvin, Maja and I got home from the hospital this afternoon after staying there for just under 72 hours (and no, unfortunately no nurses were able to come home with us... although we didn't try to smuggle any... too many things to carry already)!

We are just trying to settle in to being home and realizing that Maja is actually here and that the authorities are really entrusting her safety to us and us alone. So far Maja has adjusted well, with only a few crying fits - usually right after she sees our faces leaning into her crib and it dawns on her that we are her parents... hopefully that will subside soon! :)

We have a lot of photos that we want to share with everyone, but haven't had a chance to filter through them yet. But rest assured, as soon as we have a couple minutes of down time we'll post them for all of you so you can meet Maja. I think the problem will be picking the cutest ones to share - of course we're biased, but we think Maja is probably the cutest little girl ever! :)

Thanks to all of you for your well wishes and I promise we'll post some photos soon! Time to squeeze in a small nap before the next feeding!

CONGRATULATIONS FROM THE WEST COAST
We are happy that all went well and you are all safely at home. It is so nice that Christine will have another best friend to play with. We will be home in June to see our newest grandchild and we hope to meet Mija while we are there.
Love from Big Winnie and CL

Hi Erin and Marvin,

Congrads!!! So glad all is going well. I can't believe they let you go that long in labour...are those doctors insane...do they have nothing better to do...
The boys say congrads and too bad. They feel the 'girl' thing was unfortunate. I told them in the end girls always rule!!! They think that they could probably tolerate a visit when you are feeling up to it though...

Take care with the lifting, as I am sure you have been told, experience says to really take it easy...let Marvin take one for the team!

All the best and see you soon!
Ruth R (probably after we get back from Germany)
