Update #10

We're heading home this afternoon. We'd go home sooner, but Cincinnati Water Works decided it'd be a great day to do some "maintenance" on our street, and so they've shut the water off. Thanks. That's really appreciated. As if we don't enough adjustments to make.

So we'll be here till midday, then I'll make that infamous trek down to pick up my chariot and drive it around to the front of the hospital, where my wife AND MY NEW BABY will be waiting for me. And I will strap her into a car seat and be impossibly worried that I'm strapping her in too tight, at which point the nurse will look at me with amusement and mutter something along the lines of "Sir, the straps need to touch her body." And then I'll get behind the wheel, and drive 2 miles an hour all the way home, glancing in my rearview mirror at the secondary mirror behind her car seat just so I can make sure she's ok/smiling/hasn't climbed out of the seat and rolled down the rear window and made a break for it.

Then we'll enter our waterless home and the adventure begins. I inquired with our nurse last night if the "Call the nursery and send her there for a few hours while R and I sleep" service was available at my house, and I got a blank stare. Guess it isn't.

A few final pics from the last day and a half here at the hospital. Enjoy.
