Well let's see: With Teresa we managed to start this when she was 4 days old... With Owen it ended up being about a month and four days... Here goes:

Owen James was born on Friday, January 26 at 12:21 At 8 pounds, 6 ounces, he was a hefty little guy. Mom and Dad settled into infant-care a little easier this time, although it has still been a little bit of a shock to the system to have to get up at night to feed and change diapers. He took to nursing without any encouragement and immediately had a good latch and productive nurse. Great-uncle Jim was his first visitor on Saturday morning and big sister Teresa (along with Grammary and Grandpa Pete) came by in the evening to visit for a few minutes. Teresa took immediately to her little brother, and was able to gently hold him and cuddle him. This time, mom and dad were more prepared about food in the hospital, and despite both having hospital food, dad went out to get burritos for an extra fiber-rich meal. On Sunday, mom and dad reluctantly headed home after lunch to meet Teresa at home.
