Jeff and I are home tonight with Marco in tow. Everyone at Kaiser Oakland (whoop whoop) was SO amazing and exceeded our very high expectations. Cheers to them! That said, we were happy to get home after 36 hours there. We've already enjoyed a three-hour family nap, lunch and swing assembly. Home life never felt so good. It's pouring rain and we're happy to cocoon here for awhile.Tonight I also toast (with a real beer I might add) my fabulous and funny husband, who thankfully, is an incredible Mr. Mom, my Mom (newly named "Grammy") and Dina for being at the birth. Everyone has been so supportive with visits and calls, packages and kisses. We're truly blessed with the best family and friends in the world. Oh, and I would be remiss to not thank the inventor of the epidural and the ipod, the best birth companions.
When my family in Italy met Jeff for the first time, they laughed that from all the Americans, that I would choose one that looks like an Italian. So, now onto the show, I'm sure you'll agree that it's obvious that I'm the least Italian of the three as I look at my new family.
The washing of his flowing locks...
And a shout out to Niko... Thanks for the clothes!

You guys make a beautiful family! I love the laughing picture, so cute.
Just beautiful, I have the chills. Glad everything is going so well, you guys are very lucky! Thinking of you often up here in Oregon!
'grammy'could not say enough about her adorable grandson--but look at him--she's right! What a doll. Such perfection. Keep the pictures coming.
Although it will probably change, my tentative nickname for Marco is "Meathooks." I mean, look at the size of those hands.
Anyway. Beautiful photos and family. Soak it all in!!!
