Our second day at the hospital was probably my favorite day because Peyton came to meet her baby sister! Piper had 2 heel pricks and didn't even cry (she seems to have her dad's disposition so far). She is already a champion nurser. Also Grandma and Grandpa came to visit, as well as Uncle Jeremy and Aunt Kristin and Piper's best friend baby Layla (5 days older). Piper has a little bit of "newborn rash", and some swelling and bruising from being pushed out of a too-small birth canal, but other than that, she's absolutely perfect!
Peyton really loved her baby sister. She came in the room and we made sure Piper was put away, in the cradle in the corner, and let Peyton come see me first. She brought Jade and me each a doughnut, and she picked out flowers and a balloon to bring me, too. After she showed me the doughnut, she asked right away where her "baby sista" was. We brought Piper over and Peyton was able to open a little gift that Piper "brought" for her... the spray on glitter that Peyton has been eyeing at Sephora for about 6 months. After she enjoyed her gift for a minute, she wanted to hold Piper right away. She even wanted to kiss Piper goodbye when it was time to leave! We're taking this as a very good sign.

Sleepy daddy and sleeping baby. That was our first morning waking up as parents of 2!
SO excited to give me my doughnut
Very sweet!
Nap time with Noni
I have a feeling these 2 are going to be best friends just like their dads.
