she's a chunker!

we took claire in for a check-up today. a little early for her two-week appointment, but we were a little worried she had some jaundice. her lab tests came back negative! the doctor and nurses were impressed though- she was a little angel baby! she was awake and alert the whole time, and hardly made a sound when they had to test her gag reflex and prick her heel. she even gave the doc a smile at one point- he was highly suprised. we keep thinking that her good behavior is too good to be true, but everyday she gets even happier.


she just sleeps and eats.....

normally babies loose a little weight after they are born. not out 'little bug'! she is 9 lbs. 5 1/2 oz now and grew to 21 1/2 inches. (we didn't measure after the cone head went away....) she can eat like its going out of style, and then some. she only wakes up a couple times in the night to eat, and then she's back down in no time.


.... and eats and sleeps! sometimes she eats a little too much....
