Makenzie is doing great:
- We had her first checkup Friday, and as of then her weight was back up to 7 lbs, 11 oz and she was 20 inches tall - good news that she's gaining her weight back on track.
- She's still sleeping much of the day, though she is taking longer periods of being awake and pretty content.
- All babies have their moments of stomach pain that make them uncomfortable, and last night was one of those long nights. But most of her nights have still been very easy for us - usually only waking once for a period to feed after midnight.
- We took her first "bear picture:"
Gramda (Julie's mom) flew out of town last night to the sad, longing looks of Jadyn and Karina. We loved having her here, enjoyed playing flashlight tag and reading books, and Julie and I really appreciated the extra hands with house, kids, and baby more than anything. Thanks so much for giving up your last two weeks to come stay and play!
Jadyn and Karina are both doing well. Their weeks were busy...
- Playing with Gramda
- Performing - Jadyn is in a musical/play at our church - she had 3 performances last week, with 2 more this coming weekend
- Sleepovers with Gramda
- Holding Makenzie
- Reading with Gramda
- Learning - Karina had "Firefighter week" at school, and Daddy got to come to class
- and a little Playing with Gramda
Julie and I are doing well and sleeping when we can. We've been blessed with lots of people bringing us over meals - it's actually been a daily challenge to see if we can eat all the food and make room in the fridge before the next meal arrives. Thank you so much for the help with meals - it's been such a time freeing gift to us! The girls especially loved the cookies...
