2 week update!

little bunny today was your 2 week pediatrician's appointment, even though you technically turned 2 weeks yesterday.  i know it sounds so trite, but i seriously cannot believe it's been 2 weeks already - you are mesmerizing to watch every single day.

we took a few 2 week pics of you last night, but we waited a little late, so you weren't in the best mood for your photo shoot.  i still think they're adorable and they reflect a certain bit of your funny little personality.  shortly after your photo shoot, you had what my mom likes to call "the crise" (cajun term for crisis, pronounced like criz).  you were basically inconsolable for about an hour from 11:15 to shortly after 12.  finally, dad swaddled you super tight and we plopped you in bed between us and you settled down (i think you just wore yourself out, honestly).  you rewarded us by sleeping for 5 straight hours - it was amazing!!


this morning you did great at your appointment!  you weighed 8 lbs 13 oz, which means you gained 11 oz in 6 days.  incredible.  you also grew a little more than 2 cm in head circumference and half an inch in length.  i am so proud of what a great little eater you are and that you seem to be very satisfied with what i've got for you :)  you also got your second heel stick today and you cried a little bit, but they let me nurse you while they were doing it, so that soothed you.

when i woke up this morning, i felt like total crap and it has been getting worse throughout the day.  i am achy and have a headache and i just took my temp and have a fever of 102.3.  yuck.  it was a rough day for my first solo day, but you were awesome and slept a TON (i think you were really worn out from the doctor's appt).  fortunately, your dad is awesome and he has been entertaining you since he got home so i could rest.  you even had your first bottle tonight since i got the go-ahead to pump from the doctor.  you had no issues whatsoever and i think you really enjoyed having dad feed you.
i'm really hoping that i feel better for your first thanksgiving, but as my mom just reminded me, everyone is coming to see you, not me, anyway.  haha!

  1. what a healthy weight and it's so good that she is eating like a champ. She's got those rolls in her legs, too. Don't you just love 'em. They are just going to get more and more chunky, which will give you more and more to love on. So glad she's doing well and I hope you fell better soon.
