Here are a few pictures of Grace in March. At exactly 2 weeks she found her voice and decided she was going to be a fussy baby for the weekend. She had her 2 week check up on March 19 and the doctor didn't seem too concerned with her fussiness. She was just adjusting to the world. You forget these things after 6 years! :) But she quickly readjusted and remembered she was a good baby. At her 2 week check up she weighed 6 lbs 15 oz. The doctor was slightly concerned and wanted us to go back in a week for a weight check. The goal was for her to gain 2/3 of an ounce a day. One week later she weighed 8 lbs! She's fine! :) Her sleep habits have been great only waking up once in the middle of the night. Her daytime naps could use some work though! She likes to cat nap. Every once in a while she will sleep for an hour or more and that is good for her. Her fussy time is in the evening between 7:30-9. Without fail every night she fusses during that time and fights going to sleep. She doesn't really care for her pacifier (she'll take it every once in a while but mostly just wants it to play with) and she hates her swing. I'm amazed there is a picture of her sleeping in it. She usually just screams when we try to put her in it. Jon had a business trip at the end of March. I dreaded it, but all went well. Grace even started smiling a bit while he was gone. I think that was my blessing for playing single mom for 4 days!
Grace's first bath. Her cord finally fell off after 11 days
Hanging out watching t.v. with the kids
Derrick loves his little sister, but only wants to hold her for about a minute at a time!
My 2 girls watching the Wizard of Oz
It's been fun playing dress up
Ready for a walk on a cold morning
She looks like she's singing
A resemblance of a smile at 3 weeks
She really likes laying in her boppy pillow and often falls asleep in it
One month old!!
