May you always have walls for the winds, a roof for the rain, tea beside the fire,
laughter to cheer you, those you love near you,and all your heart might desire.

2 Weeks Old


Happy Birthday Mom.

Well, I have not had a chance to write about Madaelyn's 2nd week, and it's already the last day of her second week of life!  This week was a busy week because I was able to drive again after my c-section!  It also was my birthday on Sunday July 24th.  It was a beautiful day and my first birthday as a mother was a great feeling.

Although, Maddie did not get the memo and kept me up until 1am the night before.  She wanted to be the first to wish me a "happy birthday".


Maddie's become an excellent eater and has exceeded her birth weight.  She is 40th percentile in weight and 75th percentile in lenght.  We have a long and lean peanut.  On Monday July 25th she weighed 7lbs 13oz and is gaining about 2oz a day, =).

Maddie also got to spend some time with her Great Grandmom before her trips to Arizona and Hawaii.  We got to get a picture of 4 generations of girls in our family.

4 Generations.
 
 This week Maddie still has a very even temperament.  We have discovered that between 10pm and midnight is her "fussy" time where she fights sleeping and is a little cranky.  Otherwise she is very pleasant,  a great sleeper and very content when she is awake.  She likes to chat with us and coos.  We have story time at night where Dad reads us books.  Maddie will look at the books and is very relaxed.  She is very content to visit with friends and family, as long as she is fed!  She also makes lots of faces while sleeping. She is so cute I could eat her up!
