The hospital stay really wasn't too bad. My nurses were Cathi, Melissa, and Wendy. I LOVE Ogden Regional! Nixon had to be taken for his bath and shots at 11:30 PM. I don't think he liked it too much!
The nurse brought him back to the room around 1 AM. I was SO excited to have him back!
He sure was a sleepy little dude that first night. Nothing could wake him up! He really only woke up when they came to check his temperature at 6:20 AM. P.S. Aren't these PJ's so dang cute on him?! We bought them before we even got pregnant with Berkley because we loved them SO much! I'm so glad we got to have an adorable little man to put in them!
I LOVE his bright blonde hair! I couldn't get enough of it in the hospital! You can't really see it here but Nixon has a cute little birth mark on the back of his head!
Daddy's first time changing Nixon's bum!
Nixon's first outfit!
"Little Brother"
He's seriously so dang HANDSOME!!!
"Big Sister" and "Little Brother"
These two really did have a bond right from the start despite how disinterested she looks here!
Berkley was very curious about the hospital room. She couldn't get enough of the drawers and cupboards!
Berkley kept rubbing his head and saying "WOW!" and she kept giving him lots of kisses! So perfect!
"EYES!" (She was going through a phase of being obsessed with eyes!)
At 4 PM the nurse checked Nixon's bilirubin level and it was 4.9 so they said we would be able to go home that day for sure. Yay!
It sure was difficult having Berkley at the hospital the whole day but she eventually wore herself out and took a little nap!

Daddy with our perfect little angels!
At 7:15 PM they checked Nixon's weight and did his PKU. He weighed 6 lb 14 oz (he was 7 lb 2 oz at birth) and they said he looked good still so we got to get ready to go home!
Getting in the car seat for the very first time...ready to go HOME!!!
Our little family of 4 ready to venture off on our own! We left at 7:50 PM (Nixon was exactly 23 hours old) which was lucky because they're supposed to keep you for a minimum of 24 hours!
By the time we got home (at 8:25 PM) both kids were totally ZONKED! Needless to say staying at the hospital is very EXHAUSTING for everyone there! :)
It was GREAT to be home and enjoy our two perfect children together!
