After dinner dip

This is what Jill looks like after she is content with her dinner.

Sisters

Clover has been great around Jill. The first day Clover was a little nervous around Jill and especially found all the noises she makes interesting, but now she is a good sister. She checks on Jill every once in a while and tries to make contact, she goes wherever me and Jill are....

Jill is growing well...

Today we got Jill weighed again. She is a little over her birth weight now... 3605 grams! Way to go Jill...

We went by car together for the first time, which went well. Way to go mommy!

Happy 2 week B'day Jill

Jill is two weeks old today, but it feels like so much longer. The first week home from the hospital is gone by fast and better every day. Jill seems to have developed a pretty good schedule, where she sleeps in the morning, enjoys nap time with mommy in the afternoon and gets very awake at night when daddy gets home. That is a little tricky at times, because at night she cries more than during the day, so my day has gone by fine, but when Sean comes home Jill is a little more difficult. Luckily at night she sleeps fine again, and usually only wakes us up once.
The past 2 days it seemed like she was more hungry (about every 2-3 hours), but today she has been sleeping like a rose. I think I actually have to wake her up soon, since it has been close to 4 hours now since she came last for her last feeding. Babies do have what they call here "regeldagen" (regulation days??). These are days when the baby cries more and wants to eat more. Maybe that is what we have been through in the past 2 days? Who knows every time we think we see a pattern it is different the next day.....:)

I am curious to see what her weight is tomorrow. We have to have it checked as she should be back to her weight at delivery by 2 weeks. Than we will know for sure if the feeding routine is starting to work out.

Pretty in white

I just love white outfits, it makes Jill look so Baby. There are a lot of cool outfits out there, but for now I just like to keep her looking little.

Jill's favorite sleeping position

Hands up.....
