Two weeks old.

Well so far your dad and I are completely obsessed with you and You have gone more places and met more people than you probably should have in the first two weeks of life, my bad.

Been to the ER twice to have dinner with dad so he could show you off.

Been out to dinner 4 times. One of which was for an award dinner at the university for dad and out again for our anniversary.

Been to the doctors for blood tests 5 times but you finally got your jaundice under control so we didn't need to go to the hospital to stick you under the lights. You have your two week check up on Wednesday and we will see how you are doing. (update: you now weigh 6.10 and you are in the 5% for both height and weight, doctor says you look perfect but will be a petite girl)

You have moved or bed time up several hours and now we both beg to fall asleep with you when we put you down around 9.

You wake up every three hours to eat an rarely ever cry. You spend the mornings (9:30-11:30). Awake, alert and completely happy. The sun shines in your crib during that time and you love sunshine. We also play music and you really love that too.

You spread your arms and fingers more then most newborns do and don't ball up either. You have very long fingers and everyone hopes you grow up to play piano.

You have your uncle Will wrapped around your little finger and I think he is really loving his new title as an uncle.
You met grandma and grandpa Murray too and they love you tons. They have completely spoiled you.

Breastfeeding isn't going so well. I really tried but you can't latch and I was not producing enough. I started to get things flowing and we were on a "pump and serve" routine then out of no where my body decided to stop producing all together so it looks starting tonight you are on formula. I'm really frustrated about it but there isn't much else I can do.
