Looks like we’ll go home sometime today.  Ana Lisa’s feeling better and looks more comfortable.  In addition, a bunch of babies were born last night and the unit is filling up quickly.  There may have been a heretofore unnoticed kindness in the scheduling of the C-section for Monday morning.  It sounds like the trend is toward more vacancy in the early part of the week, and a fuller house as things head into the weekend.

This morning our nice private residence got turned into a condo with the addition of a mom and her little baby girl.  Suddenly it’s a little tight and we’re thinking more longingly of our own bedroom.

We’ve had some lovely folk, both from inside and outside the hospital, stop by to greet the boy in the last few days.  Like it or not, some of them may end up with their mugs plastered on the blog.  With all the transition, it won’t be today however.  (How fun to be able to leave the threat dangling out there.)  Today I’ll just throw up a few more shots of His Stanky Diaperness.  I’ve had to be pretty selective, since most of the good photo ops lately are difficult to frame without featuring a prominent boob.

Fortunately an artfully placed blanket opens up a world of possibilities.  Here’s AL and the boy having a little chat.

I attempted a little kangarooing of my own yesterday afternoon while Ana Lisa slept.

The biggest challenge, as with Javid, was avoiding the need for hairball medicine.  Yes, I’m pretty sure that long one on his cheek originated somewhere on my chest.  If you look closely there’s another one coming out of his mouth.  As my buddy Jim might say, Jai’s daddy is in need of some good manscaping.

Ahh, out of the forest and back on the plain.  Now that I can spot the predators coming from a long way off, maybe I can get a little shuteye.
