One Week

We've had Dylan for exactly a week tonight. She is doing great and even let me get four hours of sleep in a row one night. We still don't know who she looks like except for possibly Popeye.

At the pediatrician two days ago they said she had lost enough weight since birth that we would have to come back for a weight check (we're pretty sure they tell that to everyone and she is nice and chubby and pink, so we weren't worried). They want them to gain an ounce a day at this stage. She obligingly stayed up most of last night eating. When we went back today she had gained five ounces in two days. That's our little fatty.

MummyP and BadAnnie (note new link on the sidebar) left this afternoon so tonight is our first night on our own. It was a beautiful evening so we took Dylan and Snuffy to the park and then went to get some nutritious donuts. Snuffy is so awesome with the baby and wags his tail every time he goes near her.

Snuffy is just wagging his tail in anticipation of the new ounces to be added on.

Oh, she is just gorgeous! I want to eat her up or at least give her a kiss. As soon as my life gets back to normal( in our family that is a relative term...), I hope you guys will let me tag along with Gran to visit. Ignore all the stuff you hear from the "professionals" and trust your instincts--but listen to me and Gran of course!
