We were up all night! Dad knew we needed breakfast and he went to go get us biscuits and gravy from Braum's. When he pulled up to the window the guy said,"HEY! You're on the front page of the newspaper today!" Trey called his parents and asked them to look at the paper and sure enough there we were, FRONT PAGE! We joke and say you're our little celebrity!
We watched ourselves on the news all day long!! here's the link to watch it on the Internet!

You look just like me!! My little mini me! I just stare at you all day and night. I mean can you blame me? The nurses obsessed over you! Every time one would walk in they would come in and say, "Everyone told me I had to come see how adorable the famous new Year's Baby is!!" They loved you. They made you a special hat that a bow on it! We loved it. Your dad had the bright idea to cut it into a headband so everyone could see all your beautiful hair!
You are Daddy's little girl already!!
Because I couldn't stand up the first day I was so proud of your daddy. I always knew he would make a great dad, but watching him get up all night and log all of your feedings and pee/poopy diapers validated everything I thought and plus some. He was not only taking care of you, but me as well. Today they took my catheter out and I was allowed to get up for the first time. They told me I would recover more quickly the faster I started to get up and get around. Your dad was so patient! It took me at least6 or 7 minutes to wiggle my way out of my bed to a standing position. Once I was up he held both of my hands and walked backwards in front of me as I took micro-mini steps. When the blood started flowing back to my feet, we decided to wheel you around the maternity ward in your hospital bassinet. It took us FOREVER to get just 20 yards, but it definitely helped!
Everyone kept calling you a boy because everything we brought you to wear was grey (gender neutral) and the card in you bassinet was green. So I made your dad run down to the gift store to buy your first bow so no one would be mistaken!
You are such a beautiful baby! Everyone says so! Your dad's co-worker brought us this beautiful wreath to hang on our hospital door! Everyone just raved about how cute it was. Some people didn't have a clue who we were but knocked on the door to asked where we got it!
Day 2 was over of course we didn't sleep much!
