Olivia's Newborn check

Olivia went in for her newborn check up. She has already gained 5 1/2 oz and 1 1/2 inches.  When we left the hospital she was 7 lbs 2 oz and today she weighed 7 lbs 7 1/2 oz and was 20 1/2 inches. Evidently her milk is agreeing with her. She has her days and nights mixed up... or maybe it is just normal newborn sleep habits? My best sleep is between 4 am and 7 am... this is the stretch where she goes the longest. She is nursing every 2-3 hours.. we are still on demand and not really on a set schedule. Lots of pees and poops with every feed though which is reassuring that she is getting plenty to eat. Wow.. these newborn days are tough but they are so brief.

Eli has decided that Baby Sissy does exist and now he wants to give her kisses all the time. I had to have him practice on Isaac because he likes to lean his head into someone to give a kiss and I was afraid he would knock her out! We've also practiced lightly touching her head... his favorite thing " I want to pet her head."




This is The Princess and the Tempur pedic... She likes my bed better than her cradle
