Phil and Ted's stroller
On our first trip out, the Phil and Ted's stroller worked great. I bought it mostly on high recommendations of folks at Ask MetaFilter. It's incredibly versatile, allowing for flat newborn travel, upright toddler travel, you can fix the front wheel for jogging if you like, and you can get attachments for all sorts of stuff like a second child carrier and the car seat adapter, in use here. And unlike the trendy, spendy strollers of the moment, it's about half the price of a Bugaboo or a Stokke stroller.
We decided it was worth spending some money on good car seats and a good stroller, looking for those offering the most flexibility and features for the price. So far, the Phil and Ted's stroller has worked out great. It folds down flat and can be opened up with one hand, rolls smoothly due to the big wheels and has plenty of storage space.

Getting by with a little help from her friends
The response to the birth has been overwhelming. Thanks to everyone that wrote me, IMed me, and called. Family and friends have been great and offered tons of support.
Also thanks to George, Neale and the Talbot clan, Phil, Jason and the Shellen clan, and Caroline for sending generous gifts from Amazon. The UPS guy has been in our house so much this week he'll probably end up in the background of our baby pictures.

Happy baby
After losing half a pound in the hospital and not really taking to breastfeeding, we were a bit concerned for her well-being on Wednesday. By Thursday morning however, everything was fine. Milk came in and she started feeding like a champ. During her quick first doctor visit and vaccination, it turned out that she's already gained half the weight back and should be back to birth weight ahead of schedule.
Bascially this means the tiny nagging doubts we had in our minds are gone and everything's perfect in our world.

Other shots from the birth
I took my full sized SLR camera with me to the hospital and got this shot from the birth and this shot from her first day.
