Ava goes home!

    Sunday (the 6^th) we were set to check out.  We would have been able to go home on Saturday, but due to my fever during delivery/possible infection from Ava’s meconium in the amniotic fluid, they wanted to keep me an extra night.  Luckily, everything was fine on Sunday, and we packed up and took her home!  We were a bit nervous about Ava meeting our dogs Moose and Hulu since they were used to being the ‘babies,’ and we didn’t know how they would react to someone getting all of their attention.  We brought in her blanket and individually greeted them before ever bringing Ava in.  Once they met her, Moose was extremely interested off the bat.  He didn’t seem to mind all the attention she got.  Hulu on the other hand was very sulky.  She knew her days of being #1 were over.  She was not as interested in Ava- she would go off and ‘pout’. (It is now 1.5 weeks later, and she is coming around to her). 

   Sunday evening was a blur now.  We finally got to use all of the baby things we had set up.  Ava was very pleasant, and she spent most of her time sleeping or eating.
