Welcome Home, Mia Patricia

 The next day, Mia and I were cleared to go home. Hurray! We dressed her in "street clothes" and took a few last photos before heading out. Daddy was so excited to leave the hospital.

 And so was Mommy.

 Mia fit quite snugly in her car seat.

 And about 30 seconds later was out like a light.

When we arrived home, Big Brother Noah was there to greet us. Mimi and Great-Grammy Mary brought him up earlier in the day. They were so sweet and even changed our sheets and put flowers on my nightstand.

Noah was a lot more relaxed about seeing his new sister in our safe, home environment. I think the hospital was overwhelming for our little guy. Here he is checking Mia out in her car seat.

He was so happy to see all of us but most especially his little sister.

Kisses for Mia. Precious!

Great-Grammy was not able to make it to the hospital to see Mia so this was the first time she held her. It was truly a special moment.

 And then it was Noah's turn. He looks so natural holding Mia. His smile says it all.

And here's our big happy family! What a wonderful homecoming for our new little princess.

Welcome home, Miss Mia! We love you!
