When we got home from the hospital, the boys were so so excited to see Eli.




Crocker was excited to finally be able to hold Eli.



Our 3 babies.



We had a rough 1st night at home, but it has been much better lately.

Nanny and Granny were here with us for a little over a week. We were all sad to see them go!

Hospital and Heading Home

After Max and Crocker left, we decided to get some rest.




While I was at the hospital, I received quite a few flowers.

From my Aunt.



From my mom and dad.



From our church.



From Sheldon and our 3 boys.



My mom got a blue bow for the hospital door.



Later that night, we had quite a few visitors. I was able to take a couple of pictures, but I missed out on most of our friends.







Sheldon was such a help changing diapers and rocking the baby.



Max was so proud to come back to the hospital. He wore one of his good shirts and hat.





The night before we were discharged, the cafeteria brought us a steak dinner. We had steak, baked potatoes, salad, rolls, and dessert. It was nice and we were surprised.












We are ready to head home!

Party of 5

We became a family of 5 on January 25.



Eli Osborn Hoesli was born at 8:40 am. He weighed 8 pounds 14.5 ounces and was 19 3/4 inches long.



I was scheduled for a repeat c-section. Everything went smoothly until it was time for the spinal block and it would not work. They ended up having to put me to sleep. This meant that Sheldon could not be in the room and we both missed out on his birth.
Eli is doing great and I am getting along better each day.







After we got in our room and settled, my mom and aunt brought the boys up to the hospital. Max was really upset at seeing me in the bed with IV's and tubes coming out of me. In a few of the pictures, you can see that he is crying. It was so pitiful and we were both glad when all the wires and such came out.

Both Max and Crocker really love their new brother. They love to hold him and see what he is doing.

Visitors

Over the weekend, my mom and aunt flew into town. The boys and I went to meet them at the airport and we were so glad to see them.





They are going to be here for a little over a week and we are so excited.  We got up this morning, got ready, ate breakfast, and went to church.





After church, lunch, and naps we were able to Facetime Grampy. The boys were so excited to see their Grandpa.








We are ready to have fun with Nanny and Granny!

I found these window stickers at the dollar store and the boys have been having fun sticking them on the windows and peeling them off.






Sheldon has been home a lot lately and we are all enjoying him being with us.
