First Days at home...

We've officially be home from the hospital for a day and a half now and are LOVING it! Above is our little Alexa Joy in her coming home from the hospital outfit! It's the same one we brought Ellie home in 22 months ago. Thanks to our good friend, Jana, for this sweet little shirt and hat!
Tonight, Alexa had her first bath... Let's just say she wasn't the biggest fan. :) So...we're not posting any of the actual bath pictures, but instead a pic of her happy again after she got warmed up in her towel with Daddy... :)
Ellie continues to be smitten with "baby"! I'm still not sure she realizes that this is her sister and she's here to stay. But I love that she loves her! Tonight as we were about to put Ellie to bed, she wanted to make sure and share some cow tail with Alexa. If you don't know Ellie well, her big attachment is to her stuffed cow and she rubs her nose with it's tail. To show her love, she rubs everyone's nose with his tail. I'm glad that Alexa made the cut. :)
Ellie is also obsessed with giving baby fist pounds, hi-fives and hugs! I can't get over how cute this is!!! I'm already SO excited to have two girls who I hope will be the best of friends as they grow up!
Alexa is such a sweet and content baby... Here's to hoping she sleeps like this all night tonight! :)

Precious first moments. Thanks for letting us be a part of them.

How about some pictures comparing the girls so we can see if they look alike? :)
