The girls are doing wonderful. Chris is recovering well and settling into being a mother very well. Elliot is doing great and losing the little bit of yellow in her eyes. She had a tiny bit of jaundice when we brought her home, but they’re planning on that going away with exposure to sunlight and pooping.

While they’re doing great, I’m limping around and stealing Chris’s pain medication. Yesterday I slammed my knee into a wall and twisted it before landing on one of the steps. All that for trying to close a door with my leg while I held something in each hand (neither object was Ellie). So I’m struggling to get out of bed, but my job is to get out of bed and help anytime either of them need anything. Hopefully, this will all subside and I can be useful again.

I’m starting a new album for only Chris and I to really care about. I’m going to try to take a picture of Elliot everyday for the next year. I fully understand that those pictures will be boring and overly informative for anyone but us. It will be neat to go through them and watch her grow though.
