Time is just moving too fast!! I can't believe my little girl has been here that long! I guess since we've been so busy with family visiting off and on the whole time that it has just flown by!!
Thomas' mom, brother, sister and 2 friends came to visit over the long weekend! It was the most people we've had at our house at one time so I was a little overwhelmed! But it was nice to have everyone together since that doesn't happen very often:) We pretty much just sat around the house for a few days and enjoyed the company but once everyone left I had to get out of the house! It was tough just sitting on the couch for 4 days feeding the baby! So Thomas took me out to dinner. Lily does so great in public! I know it's only been a few weeks and that my time for a public meltdown is probebly right around the corner... but so far she has been so amazing to take out with us!! We have a sling that Thomas carries her in (my chest is too big at the moment for it to fit right lol) and she snuggles down in there and sleeps the whole time:)
Wednesday Lily had her 2 week appointment with the pediatrician! She made the biggest mess in her diaper ever right before we were supposed to undress her for the scales!! Thomas had a good time trying to clean that up!! You should have seen the look of amazement that all of that nastyness could come out of such a little baby when he walked out of the bathroom!!! It was priceless!! The appointment was basically just to check Lily's weight gain! And I am sooo happy to say that she gained 8 ounces in 8 days and is back up to her birth weight!! She looks cute too... with her big chubby cheeks like her momma!!
Everything is going smooth still! Nights really aren't that rough on us. She's sleeping with us in the bed and I think that is making it easier for me. I breastfeed laying on my side so having her right next to me means Thomas doesn't have to get up to get her everytime she's hungry, she can just whine a little to wake me up and I can dose off while she eats and then she can just fall asleep after she's done and burped! So that makes those 45 minute feedings a lot easier to do through out the night:)
She got a swing this weekend as a gift and she actually enjoys it!! She hasn't been in it very much because she's still a little small for it! But we put her in it a few times when she's awake and she just sits there and looks around:)
