1st Week


We have had a very busy week. We have had tons of visitors. Everyone couldn't wait to hold her. It was hard to share but we made it. My mom stayed with my until Thursday which was great. She really didn't want to leave. I am sure she will be back up soon.

The Dr. saw her on Tuesday and said her she looked a little jaundice so we had her blood drawn. If she was a little bigger and not 2 weeks early he would not have worried but they were a little high for her age and size. So she has been on the "billy blanket" - light blanket all week and going out in the sun. We had to have her blood drawn on Wednesday and Friday also. The levels have started to go down but she has to stay on the blanket for the weekend.
Here's our radioactive baby. She is so cute. Look at those cheeks!

Well, other than that life is good. She eats very well, sleeps wells and likes to smile. It has been the best week of my life. I feel great and am try to get rest and not do too much. We like to sit on the back porch while she lays in her bouncer in the sun. Here she is trying to suck her fist like her cousin Shelby.
