We've been home for more than 24 hours and we're still standing. Sam was delighted to meet his little brother. There's really no other way to describe it -- he was all smiles and said "hi baby Elliott" over and over. He continues to be curious about the baby and shows grave concern any time Elliott begins to cry or whine. We're trying to teach Sam about being gentle -- so far there's only been one major infraction - a book landed on Elliott's head -- other than that, it's been all head pats and hand kisses.
The over night was a little hard on me, but a long nap today has me back on track. Here's hoping for a couple of decent stretches of sleep tonight. Elliott's first appointment at the pediatrician is tomorrow at 9 a.m., so there won't be any time for lounging around!
