++Settling In++

We're getting things figured out here as a family of four. We were so lucky to have help from Mark's parents who ran Wyatt ragged while we were in the hospital and getting adjusted at home. They also enjoyed meeting their new granddaughter (with two boys, this pink thing is really new to them!)
We had no more than unpacked our bags when the storm of the century occurred in Memphis. I say this in jest. We did get quite a bit of snow though. We were spared ice so the roads remained fairly safe. Most importantly, it was entirely contained to the weekend so it couldn't snarl up school or work for too many people. It did provide for some great entertainment for Wyatt!
Claire had a few firsts that I am trying not to forget to document with photos. We had lots of help from big brother for her first bath. Her right arm has never been so clean. He seems to enjoy these helping tasks so we've been trying to include him whenever possible.
Finally, this is mostly what Claire looks like these days. I am not going to say much about our nights right now because I am so afraid to jinx it. Let's just say, Wyatt got up every two hours for the first two months of his life...so our low expectations are being exceeded. But we know it has only been ten days and things can change!

Pink eye update: we appear to be all clear in our house. Luckily the girls were spared. We have lifted Wyatt's quarantine and he has reentered the world. Thank goodness. Can't wait to see what he brings home next.
