We're Home

 Dad and Grandpa at the hospital!

 Ready to go to the pediatrician.
 He likes to stick his legs straight up in the air.
 Tanning!  Trying to make sure he doesn't have jaundice.

 AHHH So Nice!!

 Mom and Aunts!
There goes his leg again!

We got home yesterday about noon.  Sorry we didn't get any pictures up sooner, but we have been trying to figure things out!  Melissa is breastfeeding well and Nixon is just such a good baby.  We had to take him to the pediatrician to get his bilirubin checked for jaundice.  Lets hope everything is ok.  Here are lots of pictures for you guys!

 Nixon Sound asleep.
  Nixon's first bath.
 Melissa changing Nixon's first dirty diaper.
 Precious!

Look how little this guy is!

Today has been the most amazing day of our lives and also one of the longest!  We are currently still at the hospital with our new addition to the family.  Melissa has been working on breast feeding Nixon all day.  She realized that is wasn't as easy of a task as she had thought.  She is getting better at it though.  We know it is working because Nixon has unloaded on 2 diapers already and peed all over Melissa.  We still haven't gotten much sleep, but the adrenaline of the whole experience is keeping us going.  We had some visitors today which was nice and we were able to share our bundle of joy.  Melissa is a great mom and is very good at letting people hold her baby.  We will be staying in the hospital tonight and then heading home sometime tomorrow morning.  We talked to our pediatrician, and Nixon will be getting circumcised on Monday morning.  I already feel bad for the little guy.  Anyways, thanks again for all the prayers.  We felt them all day.  Keep checking back for updates!
