Sweet Baby Girl

Wide awake...I love this picture!

Things are starting to settle down, Ryan is back at work, Lucy's been at her mom's all week, and the baby and I are starting to get the swing of a feeding routine, no help from my over-exerting breasts :) I have enough milk to feed all the babies in Bothell, but we're getting down to only one shirt change a night, so that's promising!!

Rowan had her first check up last Friday, where she weighed in at 8lbs, 5.5 oz., only a week old and exceeding her birth weight. She is still super calm for the most part, she really only gets mad if she is hungry and impatient. She's been taking a bottle once a day from Ryan, which has proven to be an easy feat--switching back and forth from me to a bottle. When she's awake she just looks around and observes everything...people, her mobile, the blinds in our bedroom, the dots on her crib...she's so sweet; I can't get enough of her little face and her big blue eyes.

9 days old.
