Sleep

The one piece of advice we seemed to hear alot prior to Harper's arrival was to get plenty of sleep, because that would be gone soon. Everyone was right on, and it isn't just because she is up crying in the middle of the night either. As a new parent, the slightest squeak makes you want to jump out of bed and check on her. We were also complicated by the fact that Harper didn't want us to put her down the first couple of days back from the hospital. She ended up sleeping on our chest in a chair for the first couple of nights, which makes for some great pictures, but not so great sleeping coniditions for the parents. But then on Saturday night Gina tried again, and as you can see from the picture, we weren't the only ones celebrating.
