We had a great, short hospital stay and were able to go home after only 2 nights. A normal c-section stay is 3 nights but they gave us the option to go home since baby and I were doing well. I was up and walking fast than the norm and she was sleeping and eating well too.
Before I get to the home pics, here are some more from the hospital. I love this hat on her!!
Another family pic! Vince loves his sis and calls her his baby. 
My parents kept Vince while we were in the hospital and have been wonderful at keeping him off and on since we've been home. 
Jess and Noah visited us at the hospital along with cousin Melissa.
They also visited us at home!
This is Carmen on the way home. Her first ride in her carseat!
At home she has been a big sleepy head. She literally only wakes up to eat every 3 hours. Every time we put her on her back she rolls over to her side. I didn't think a newborn could do that but she does! 
Vince loves "his baby". He kisses her everytime he has the chance. He looks like a giant next to her! Makes us realize he's not a baby anymore! They are almost 3 years, 2 months apart. 
Like I said, she is barely awake. So earlier today when she had her eyes opened wide, I got this pic! You can't tell here, but her eyes are not just regular dark brown. They have a hint of hasel or green in them, or even blue or grey. It's so hard to tell at this point! One things for sure. She has a beautiful full head of black straight hair. It's silky smooth and feels great. 
And here she is in her crib for the first time. I have to limit myself on going up and down the stairs right now due to the surgery so we are spending most of our time downstairs and she hasn't seen her room much yet. The animal/blankie there says "thank heaven for little girls". I agree 100%!!
