My Favorite Time...So far!

Although, I do not have any pictures of this to post yet, my favorite time of the day with Little S is right after her bath. She really enjoys her baths, but is not so keen about the transition between the bath and getting out and dressed. But once she is dressed, she seems so alert and content with her surroundings. Her big blue, curious eyes are wide awake and she is just taking everything in. It seems like she has so much to tell me, if only I could understand. Sometimes I pretend she is telling me I'm doing fine. I just love it! Now don't get me wrong, I love every minute I have with her, this just happens to be among my favorites!!

Quick update. Little S is 6 weeks old. Her official due date came on Sunday (Jan 24)and she was still a little on the small side. I took her to the Dr. on Monday for a weight check and her Synagis shot (RSV prevention),she she hit the scales at 5 lbs 14oz and 19 3/4 inches long. She is now 1 lb heavier than when she made her debut into this world. Slowly but surely she is packing on those lbs! I'm definitely hoping for her to surpass the 6lb mark by her next visit, which isn't until Feb 15th so that gives her plenty of time.

Little GB is still loving his little sister with everything he has. Little S is now privledged enough to be considered a "Master." Did I mention he is now obsessed with Star Wars? I thank his dad every day for that one.

One Month!

I can not believe that my Little S has been with us for a month already. But when I think about it, I can't even imagine how we lived without her. She has already made a place for herself in our little family and everyone of us loves her more than words can say. Little GB just loves loves loves her and is very protective of her. He is such a good helper where she is concerned, he's so willing to get her a diaper, binky, and kisses. Whatever she needs Little GB is on it. Oh what a wonderful BIG brother he is. I took Little S to the Dr. yesterday and she is a whopping 5 lbs 7 oz and 19 inches long. She is slowly but surely packing on the lbs and pretty soon I think she'll be able to wear regular clothes. She has two "big girl" outfits that she can fit into. Yay! My friend J came over the other day to help me take some pictures of her in hopes of making it onto a birth announcement. Little GB also went to the Dr. for his 3 year well child visit. He is a whopping 33 lbs (60th percentile) and is 38 3/4 inches tall (80th percentile) and according to his Dr. is built like a TANK! His head size, even though they don't measure anymore is off the chart. (which it has been pretty much since he was born. ha ha) Here are a few of the pics we took and of course my Little GB.
