Once again I started a post days ago and am finally getting ready to post it days later. I guess this is life as we know it! : )Anyways, Alivia got another good report at her 2 week appointment weighing in at a whopping 9 lbs, 5 oz! Yes, a whole pound in one week! Well over her birth weight of 8 lbs, 9 oz. She didn't grow any more inch wise but an inch in the week prior was substantial enough for them to be okay with it. She measures in the 96th percentile for her weight and the 81st percentile for her height and the 76th percentile for her head size (silly measurement if you ask me!). Aside from her growing physically we continue to be amazed how much she changes each and every time we get a new picture of her. I text pictures often to Daddy and he was looking through the pictures and he makes comments on how much she has changed in just 2 weeks.
We got to have more visitors to meet Alivia this week and the "conceited" part of me never gets tired of hearing people tell us how beautiful she is!! : ) We love the cute gifts that everyone brings her and are of course grateful for every bit of it!! We can't wait to get pictures of the adorable outfits when she grows into them all...although I am going to have t
o start changing her clothes a few times a day to get her into all of them! ; ) But it's fun to see her in the outfits and as she gets more "squirmy" and messy I don't foresee it being much of a problem to have her in multiple outfits a day. She got to meet her "god-sister" today with a visit from "Aunt" Becca and "Uncle" Brian and Meliah! It was great to see them and I know that it was extremely tough on Aunt Becca to have to have waited so long to meet her due to colds in the family! But she got lots of snuggle time with them both and Meliah did terrific with her...her "beee-beee".
Jay and I had our first night out on Saturday night. We are reminded often how important it is to make time for the two of us as it is to have time with Baby Girl. Our friend Sabrina turned 30 Friday and we went out for her birthday while Grandma Lint had time with her "girls" as she called it since Ashleigh was here to help as well. I think she looked as forward to it as we did!! We had a great time and were glad that we were able to go out and help Bri celebrate a milestone birthday! : )We slowly find ourselves falling into a schedule but at the same time s
truggling to get things down and maintain the schedules. This momma has had a couple of rough days with Liv's tummy ache and a little fussiness + lack of sleep. We continue to get to know one another. I will admit it is certainly a lot harder than I ever would have thought but the feelings that I have for that little girl are a great reward for the challenges. And she has Daddy wrapped around her little finger for sure!!Another random, rambling post and probably plenty that I am forgetting to include but I hope to have this r
ambling mess to help remember the small things and big things that Ali
via can see in the future!! And to keep all of our family that don't get to be close updated on her happenings!! We fall more and more in love with this little girl! We continue to learn about her as much as she is learning about us!! In closing of the randomness, we finally got A's newborn photos done and they were so incredibly cute that it was hard for us to choose which ones to get but look forward to getting them hung up around the house!!
