Our beautiful baby girl is one week old today!  I can't believe it's already been a week! She is such a precious angel and we love her to bits!  So far her personality is so easy going and relaxed! I hope it stays that way because we are enjoying everything about her instead of stressing over "what could be wrong!"  She is breastfeeding like a champ and I have to wake her up to feed at night.  SHe goes right back down!  She very rarely cries!  She puts up with her brother poking and prodding like she doesn't care and just sits there!  We are so so so so blessed.  I had to convince Jack to have a third child and now he says, "what was I thinking!  She is AWESOME!"... and she totally is.

Her doc appointment went well yesterday.  She isn't back to her birth weight yet (she was 7.2 and now she's 6.12) so we go for another weight check next week.  She was 19.75, so it seems she got shorter, but the doctor said it was just a different method of measurement.  Otherwise, her coloring is perfect and everything looked great.

Momma is feeling good.  I'm tired, but really can't complain since she only feeds twice in the night and it is fairly quick.  I've been trying to sneak in some cat naps during the day, but with two other sweet boys to take care of, there is no rest for the weary!  I'm very happy not to be pregnant anymore and to fit into my normal clothes.  I still have a few pounds to lose, but not anything that is too overwhelming, so that is good!

Life is good!  I'm just praying colic or reflux doesn't hit us!  They say that can start around 3 weeks!
