Today, our first full day at home, was mainly spent catching up, and doing odd tasks like finalizing our pediatrician choice and scheduling an appointment. But the exciting thing was a sense of normalcy. It's really refreshing how everything has completely changed, yet nothing has changed at all. It was good to feel settled at home and many of our normal routines continue (with Addelynn in tow).
We took a short walk this afternoon to the park to throw the ball for Titus for about 10 minutes. It got slightly chilly, so we closed in the stroller as you can see. We also had several of Lana's fellow teachers come over an hour and half tonight. It was good to see them and they brought good Lasagna too. :)
Addelynn has also taking to hanging out in the swing that Grandma & Grandpa Sprunger got for her. We've also had a great time listening to some toons & singing along. (I'm trying to indoctrinate her with some good taste, before Lana makes her listen to Ozzy or Bon Jovi). Overall our daughter has been an incredibly good baby. She eats well, goes down easy, sleeps soundly, and really isn't very fuzzy. I am just skeptical on how long this will last and when the nightmare will set in.
It's been amazing to hear how many people have actually been reading this thing. We're glad to hear you've been enjoying it. Thanks for caring. As you can see above, this is how most of the blogging happens. Addelynn napping on my chest and me awkwardly trying to type. I am also getting decent at typing with one hand. That's all for now... - The Rohrer's

Mark,
Congratulations to you and Lana! I've been reading your blog for the past couple days, and have really enjoyed your take on the whole fatherhood thing. Jason and I felt the same way after we had Evelyn - life is different, but in all you are the same people who like to do the same things, just now you fit a baby into that mix. Best wishes in figuring out all the intricacies of parenting! I'll keep reading!
