Her First Visit to the AT
Natalie and Lydia went on a nice hike on Saturday with our friend Angie and her son Patrick to Max Patch on the Appalachian Trail near Hot Springs, while Sutton watched college football (and had no clue how beautiful it would be!). We'll definitely be going back here!
Lydia's First Visit to the Mountains
On Friday, we took Lydia to the mountains for the first time and her Georgia grandmother Sherrie met us at NOC. It also happened to be Halloween day!
Here they are in my office, both dressed up for Halloween (and yes, that's a giant photo of her on the computer monitor behind them...).
Note her cat suit and pumpkin hat...

Her First Snow
Believe it or not, Asheville had its first snow this week. Much of it melted before we could snap this quick photo of Lydia's first snow...

Monday - Heading Home
After seeing the pediatrician early Monday morning, we were released to go home. It took a while to pack up our belongings after living in the room since Friday night. Here's a photo of Natalie and Lydia right before our departure. It felt good knowing we were heading home.
Two wonderful volunteers came up to the room and helped us to our car. Here we are riding the elevator down to the lobby.
Here we are getting ready to leave the hospital and get in the car.
Lydia slept the entire ride home, her first car ride, all 10 minutes of it. On the way home, we stopped by Natalie's office, which was on the way, to show off Lydia to her co-workers.
As you can see below, she didn't appreciate the house and all of our hard work preparing it for her right off the bat. We, however, were certainly appreciative of the beautiful flower arrangement given to us by Tara, Tyler, and Tessa (our next-door neighbors).
Feeding time
Sleep time - for now! She truly prefers sleeping during the day and, well, not sleeping at night!
And bath time. She didn't like that very much.
It's much better being clean.
Here's a picture with her great-grandmother

Update from Sunday
Sunday was a relatively quiet day for us. We had a few friends come and visit, including our good friends Lindsay and Eric. Here's a picture of Eric doing a Heisman Trophy pose with the baby...
Our room at the hospital had a great view (it is Asheville, after all). Here's a good fall shot looking out of our hospital window...
