The frightening angry screaming face:
And that one's not even that frightening!
And here's some more:
The "That is pretty funny!" face
The "oh my god that is hilarious" face
The "ok I don't get that one" face
The "And Now You're Just Boring Me" face
So Stevie already adores Danny and could care if I lived or died. Now we have Josie adding her two cents... I have to wear a bunny costume and dance the Charleston to get her to smile at me, whereas Danny comes home for lunch, bends down and says "hi Josie" and here is what he gets:
And two seconds later:
That's it, I'm growing a beard or something. At least it's Father's Day, if it was Mother's Day I would be pissed! I guess all the womenfolk in the house adore him.

The other day we decided to head to Nut Island for a stroll. Here are some shots from that excursion:
I thought it was only fair, after showcasing Josie's awesome sleeping skills, to show her other thing she's just recently gotten good at: being awake.
She has also been perfecting her adoring gaze:
And... perhaps the most exciting of all... she is starting to smile!! Like for real!
I guess the second month gets really thrilling!
We cannot believe it has been nearly a month that Josie has been on
this planet now. It still seems like yesterday that we were in the
hospital, wondering if we were just going to have to live there.
Josie still sleeps, like A LOT. I know all babies sleep a lot, but I
really do have to wonder if my due date was miscalculated... seeing as
how my body WOULD NOT go into labor even though she was past her due
date, and also then just seeing how much she sleeps. She is starting to
stay awake for longer periods, but she still spends the vast majority
of her days and nights sleeping. If she does decide to stay up and hang
out, it tends to be during the 3 a.m. hour. But my girl loves her
sleep, just like her mama. Here is what she often looks like:
And sometimes it's contagious!
Life is pretty low key around the Enos household!
The rest of the stay was a blur of nurses, student nurses, phlebotomists, photographers, lactation specialists, visitors, food service delivery people, midwives, medical study representatives, and nursing assistants. Just to prove to ourselves that we weren't freaking out over nothing, Danny and I took an inventory of how many people had given us some kind of care since we had checked in to the hospital, and the total was over 50 people. And that was just caregivers, not anyone dropping off info or food or anything.
Anyway, by day two Danny and I had HAD it. I have never wanted to leave a place so bad in all my life. I knew I was at my breaking point when a girl came in to take my blood at 3:44 am! If I weren't so tired, I would have lost my mind on her. Thankfully for her, I was already awake because of another nurse standing there taking my blood pressure! I'm pretty sure that my blood pressure is going to be fine WHEN I AM SOUNDLY SLEEPING! But she woke me up anyway, just to check. They wanted me to stay five days in all. On day three my OB said I could leave but the pediatrician said Josie had to stay since she still had a bit of fluid in her lungs. So we sadly stayed one more night, then Josie was given the green light to bail, so bail we did. I think I was ready to go at 8 am that day, although we couldn't leave until noon. Here is what Josie looked like thirty seconds before we left forever:
Evidently being in the hospital too long makes your feet get HUGE.
Anyway, we headed home and the fun began! More photos to come!
