Mary Beth didn't sleep well. That means Mama didn't sleep well, either. And that means Daddy didn't sleep well, too. From everyone I've talked to, that's normal, especially for a first night home. Mary Beth started out in her crib, and we had moved her to her papazan chair by midnight. That meant that Rebecca moved to the couch. And Jonathan stayed in bed.
A side note here, Jonathan didn't stay in bed because he's a bad daddy. He registered to take the GMAT on Monday the 22nd so that he could have it out of the way before Mary Beth comes. Well, Mary Beth spoiled that one. So, on about six restless hours of sleep, he scored a 600. That means that he'll most likely start grad school at University of Alabama at Huntsville in January.
And now back to your regularly scheduled programming...
Rebecca took Mary Beth to her first doctor's appointment this morning while Jonathan was taking the GMAT. The bloodwork came back for Mary Beth about 3:00 and her biliruben count was 19.01. Dr. Parmer wanted to admit her to the hospital to be put under the "glow lights" to help break down the bilirubens. So I'm writing this from Decatur General Hospital, Suite 3. A glowing Mary Beth sends her love to everyone.

Bless . . .. Congrats on your score though!
Josie didn't do well her first night home at all. Both of us were in tears trying to figure out why she was perfect in the hospital, and then all of a sudden, when it was just us...she cried and cried.
It gets much better though. I promise.
