All the little working parts












I thought I better give everyone a quick update before the little one wakes up from her nap. Daddy went back to work this week so Mommy and Lily and the dogs are on our own and doing pretty well. Thankfully, Grandma and Dad have come by to check on their girls and make sure we are taken care of. Grandma brings coffee in the morning and dad comes home over lunch. Lily is settling in to a bit of a routine, if you can call it that, and mom and dad are trying to adapt. The last couple of nights she has slept for 3 to 4 hours in between feedings, which has been wonderful. It sad that one can get so excited about getting 3 hours in a row of sleep. We both feel so refreshed if we get more than 1 1/2 in row! Speaking of feedings, she is eating really well and gaining weight like crazy. Last Monday she was 7lbs. 9 oz and yesterday she was 8 lbs. 3 oz. We think she is going to be a chunker! The Doc gave her a clean bill of health adding that she was surprisingly strong as he held in superman position and she held her neck up the whole time. He also was quick to return her as she has quite the pipes on her as well. The bump on her head and the yellow skin are now completely gone. Another tribute to her super powers as the doctor did not expect that large bump to resolve itself for several weeks! We are so very proud of our little one. She is going to be crawling, walking, and playing soccer in no time!
