She's Growing

Casey had her 2 week doctor's appointment today. She surpassed her birth weight, weighing in at 7lbs, 13 oz. Her oxygen level is high and her jaundice yellowish eyes are white and healthy. Doc says we have a very healthy baby and don't have to go back until she's 2 months.

She is still sleeping well. We put her down at 10-11 p.m. and she sleeps for about 4-4.5 hours, feed her, then she sleeps for another 3-3.5 hours. After her 5-6 a.m. feeding however, she likes to stay awake, so that's what we're working on now. Mommy and Daddy are definitely not ready to be awake at 5 a.m. Her cone head is disappearing and she definitely seems even more alert. She found her tongue on Wednesday and sticks it out all the time now.

Tracy is healing very nicely. Still pretty tired and now realizes that she is going to have to learn to nap. Stan has been enjoying working at home. He heads back to VA on Monday for a week, but then will be back working at home the following week. Should be interesting for all of us.

Gramma Lois is enjoying her time with her granddaughter and enjoying the crazy Colorado Spring weather. Today it hailed, then snowed, then sunny, then snowed, then hailed, then sunny, etc. all day long. Wednesday it snowed all day.


This bath thing isn"t so bad...
