Thursday was another early morning with Drs. in and out writing orders and getting things set up so we could go home later that afternoon. Matt ran home to shower and when he got back the baby and I had fallen asleep and got a good nap in.
After that Mat headed to work for a couple hours which left me and the baby all to ourselves. We got most of the stuff set up for discharge and a few things packed. My friend, Erin, stopped by and it was fun to do some catching up with her only a month and she will have her newest little man. About 11 the picture people showed up to set up a time for pictures and they asked for siblings and dad to be present so I called Matt and he headed home to get the girls and then was headed our way. Just before he came back Joy headed home for some work meetings she needed to be to and Krissy had come to be with the girls. So once they all had their hair done and were dressed they came to the hospital. The pictures ended up being such a waste and I was really disappointed since the pictures with Gracie had been so good. Emery cried since she was hungry and there was really no where for all of us to be pretty much just a complete waste of time. After we were done Matt took Krissy and the girls home for naps and then came back to help get everything packed up. To be honest I was really sad to go home. It was nice to have someone else cook and pick up for you and the girls could come visit any time they wanted so it was a really nice deal. But it was time to figure things out. But before we could leave we had to make her name official. After a lot of debating and trial and error we came up with Emery Kate Brower. The other option we had come up with was Emery Kay so it was slightly like Kerry(Matt's middle name) but I really liked Kate so that is what we ultimately did. It was a lot more discussion than I think either of us had anticipated but we both felt good about our decision so Matt called the birth certificate line and made it official. So Thursday just after 4pm we headed for home. Here is Emery all dressed up and ready to head home. When we left the hospital she weighed in at 6lb 12oz of all cuteness
This child is constantly rooting and acting like we haven't fed her in days! Thank heavens for binkis
Once we got home Krissy did a fantastic job at keeping the kids occupied while we got settled, unpacked, and I showered. Matt ran to pick up our pump provided by our insurance and then we called it a night. We go the girls in bed and then Krissy headed to her grandparents house in Washington Terrace to stay for the night. Hallie couldn't go to bed until she had one more chance to hold her baby. We were able to get some pictures printed so she could take then to school with her the following week...she was pretty thrilled about that.
