Turner is home!

Today was check-out day at the hospital and there was a lot to do. I woke up early to pick-up a 'Thank You' card and small gift for the nurses who've been beyond helpful with Turner and Tori.  We took the advice of our friend Kathy and picked up breakfast pastries for the nurses from Panera Bread.  We also got them a 'Thank You' card to express our appreciation for everything.

While Tori and Turner were getting cleared by the doctors to head home, I was picking-up our cousin Ondrea from the airport.  We arrived at the hospital and Ondrea got to hold her new nephew for the first time.  They got along great from the start.  Ondrea kept Turner busy while Tori and I packed up the items in our room.

We placed Turner in our Chicco Keyfit 30 infant carrier and we were on our way.  It was cold out but we didn't want to bundle Turner up too much.  The last thing you want is to overheat him.  One of the nurses escorted us out and I pulled up the car to the entrance while everyone waited.  Luckily it didn't take long to get from the parking lot to the main entrance.  In retrospect, I should have driven around first and then called up and told them to come down stairs.

Turner is now home and has been getting accustomed to his new surroundings.  The dogs are curious, cautious and eager to play with Turner.
