Poopsearching - Way more fun than it sounds!

Day three has now passed, and it sure passed fast... as well as number two.
At least I now exactly what happened yesterday and today. Monday is more of a blurry collage of pictures and memories, I remember most things but not sure about the order and reasoning.
Well, never mind, ove to the small recap of what happened since the last post.

Yesterday not so much, spend most of the day coherently looking on, holding and talking to my daughter. However, there was the small instruction sessions on breastfeeding, interesting but I felt slightly left out, and diaperchanging, this I could do...yeay! Less yeay for the fact that because the nurse told us to keep track of Viviana's private affairs a particular father found it excessively interesting to check the diaper as often as possible. lets say a diaper or two got thrown away uneccesarily due to lack of thinking. The whole poop and pee searching business is to make sure that the tiny one's system works ok. Not so interesting to know? Wait until you are in the same position and you'll find it a whole lot more interesting ;)
BTW the crazy notion that babies like to wait and pee when they are not wearing a diaper... it's true!! She peed on my sweater! I just found it so amazing that I started laughing out loud, which made some people in the room question my sanity a bit....


Today daddy first went to the "Commune" to register his daughter. Lets just say that I have the feeling that Italy might not be at the top of the list of modern societies. As some of you might know I have surname AND a middle name, in Italy this concept doesn't exist...so my daughter is from now on a registered citizen of Italy by the name of:

VIVIANA ISABELLA HALLENCREUTZ REDMOND

If anyone has a longer name I dare you to tell me. It will be inter
esting when she has to sign papers. Also if I/we would have chosen Lattanzi instead it would have been a major insult to everyone because that is interpreted as her not being my daughter... and people keep telling us that the small one looks like me so I guess we did the right thing!
Biggest thing happening at the hospital today was that Vivianas poop started changing from black glue to greenishy paste... HAHA, remember to thank me for the mental picture! She also tried to pee on me again but I was prepared and shielded myself with her diaper :D Otherwise I spend my days just enjoying the company of my daughter
and my wife, and all the visitors dropping by of course. ATM though my daughter is a tad more interesting than everyone else.

Well, 'nuff with the writing and on with the pictures!


If you were wondering, sleeping is still the favorite pastime!


Also being at the hospital is quite relaxing, comfy bed and nice company.
Note 1. The person standing is the one who gave birth!
Note 2. There are at least two people on the photo that wishes there was one less double chin!


When I asked if she wanted her bed back she didn't answer, just looked at me like this.
Anyone know what she mean by that?


I guess I'm not the only one who falls asleep with my mouth open!


BTW this is what "our" luxurious room looks like!
Sara is the only one though who wants her baby with her, the rest in the room keeps theirs in "storage" all day exept feeding time.


OK, question of the the day is who is the cutest when she sleeps?
Viviana

OR

Sara?
