home

we got to bring Kathryn home yesterday. here's the obligatory photo:

here's Kathryn and Mommy cuddling on the couch:

the cats were apprehensive at first, but i think they are warming up to her. we're having to try a little harder now to keep them out of her room.

Kathryn had a couple visits last night: Carter and Mary from our church and Nick and Steph from our small group bible study. i think she enjoyed the company! (if you'd like to visit, it would be great to call us first just to make sure we're up to it.)

everything's still fine with mom & baby. we're just keeping an eye on Kathryn's bilirubin count to watch for jaundice. Kathryn's blood type is A+ and Jenn's is O+, and the incompatibility can be quite a job for her not-quite-mature liver. they are monitoring her to make sure she doesn't need treatment.

speaking of, we're off to the Doc's this afternoon for her first pediatrician visit. we'll keep everyone updated!

we continue to appreciate everyone's support and prayers.
