24

A little more than 1 day into Jack's life and he's doing very well, feeding at regular intervals and sleeping a good amount. In fact, when he's not eating, he is very content to get swaddled, lie back, and watch the world go by. So far, he's a pretty peaceful child.

Kelly is getting better and better but will stay in the hospital a few more days to rest. She's been walking around the halls and her appetite has returned. We had our Celebration Dinner last night, a specially prepared smorgasboard of overcooked beef, underseasoned broccoli, and sparkling cider (which we dumped in favor of champagne).

Overall though, the hospital staff have been fantastic and we couldn't ask for more in terms of the post-partum ward--everything is brand new and our room is massive.

Kelly will be home sometime this weekend and primed for sushi and more champagne.
