Newborn Happenings

Newborn Happenings:

Although we've been at home only 2 weeks, we've been busy and Cecilia has slept through most of it!  She eats and sleeps like a champ and rarely cries.  Right now she is shaping up to be a very "chill" baby.  She spends a few hours awake each day and just stares at us as we talk to her and sing to her.  We've gotten several smiles and even a few giggles as she is falling asleep.

Cecilia and Dr. Kaufman at her 1 week appointment.

Weight: 6 pounds 15 ounces

Length: 19.5 inches

(at the hospital she was only 18 inches long and at our doctor's appointment the nurse measured her at 19.5 inches long which I thought was a lot of growth for a few days.  I mentioned this to our doctor and she remeasured her only to get 20 inches long!  Hmmm...Madelyn hasn't grown 2 inches in the last 2 years, there is no way my kids grow at a rate of 2 inches in 2 weeks!  So Dr. Kaufman chalks it up to a bad measurement in the hospital!)

Ahhh..  to be so tiny and so comfortable, sleeping the day away!
