3 Weeks Old



I can't believe she already 3 weeks old. It actually feels like we've had her home longer than that. It's almost getting hard to imagine what life was like before baby.

At her two week check up she had already grown an inch and gained over a pound. Of course, she did lose seven pounds from the day she was born to that Friday after, but she is growing nicely and getting big! Some of her little sleep and play outfits are already getting a little small. I can't believe it.

Today we went to get some newborn portraits taken. I didn't think they would turn out too great but they are so cute! I can't wait to share them with the Grandparent's and family. She did such a great job and was so alert - very cute.

Here are some more pics of Little Miss.

More Cute Photos





Today Miss Baby is two weeks old. She has been such a great baby so far and we have been adjusting to life with a new baby. Last night was a pretty sleepless night because Miss J didn't want to go to sleep until about 4 in the morning. Other than that, she is a little sweetie and hardly fusses or cries.

Right now she is in her swing blissfully drifting into dreamland.

I have taken some really cute photos over the past two weeks that I want to share. I also have a nice little video to share of Johanna enjoying her swing.

Tomorrow is her 2 week checkup so we hope she has gained the necessary weight to get back up to her birth weight. As much as she likes to eat, I'm sure it won't be a problem.

She really has been very alert the past few days and can really focus in on faces. She is also started to respond to some of her toys and really likes music. I like to sing to her but have a hard time thinking of good songs to sing. At least she doesn't know if I mess up the lyrics!

Another thing - she has had trouble passing gas and the past few nights will grunt and grunt trying to get a poop in. Vince and I play bicycle with her legs to help her pass out that gas. It's amazing the grunts this little lady can make!

Well, enough for now! We'll keep you posted with new baby updates.
