We can't believe our little girl will be two weeks old tomorrow. We have had a very busy two weeks since Emma joined out family. We love her dearly. We are up 2-3 times per night. Nate is off this week to help out and then I will be on my own starting next Monday. We thank all of our family for coming and helping us out with the boys, cleaning, and meals.
Emma is doing wonderful. She is alert a couple times a day now. She is starting to make more noises and likes to grab onto Megan's hair. She already hates being swaddled. The boys were swaddled for months. She likes her arms free. She isn't interested in the binky at all yet. Both the boys were binky babies. She had her first check up today. Everything looked great. She weighed 8lbs 8ozs. She gained 28 ounces since leaving the hospital. The doctor said they shoot for an ounce a day. Well she almost tripled that. :)
The boys are doing well with her. Charlie seems more interested all the time and likes to help out a little now. Cooper enjoys helping out whenever he can. Cooper is doing well in preschool. We can't believe he will be done in just a couple of months. He is very excited about his field trip to the Connors Museum tomorrow. Charlie enjoys staying home with mom and going to PS I Love You. He loves having his own preschool to go to. We still try and go to playgroup when we can. He loves hanging out with all his friends.
Unfortunately a little virus is passing through our household right now. Nate and Charlie haven't been feeling so great. We can only hope and pray the rest of us don't get it.
