A day in the life of Abigail.....

Abigail gets up several times a night. Mainly for eating, changing and the occasional cry. Moms a big sucker for a crying Abigail. Dad has been doing his best to help out and he's done a fantastic job. Abigail has slept in the bed a few times, like I said moms a sucker.

We had been eating every 3 hours during the day but at times Abby was not terribly hungry so on occasion we stretch it to 4 hours.

We had our two week doctors appt and Abigail did a phenomenal job and gained almost half a pound. She now weighs 5 lbs. 7 oz. So all of our hard work at getting this girl to eat has paid off. She still doesn't fit in her newborn clothes and is wearing premie diapers but she is growing!! We don't have to go back for 6 weeks so hopefully we will do lots of growing in that time. The Feldmanns got us a great gift to help us track abigails weight.... A baby scale!!

We have had several visitors come by to see us and while Abigail loves all her visitors she usually sleeps through them! Hopefully she will have more awake time soon. We have noticed that she is more alert in the evenings.

Since Abigail came home we have had several changes around the house. We got new carpet and our furniture came too. So we finally have our family room back and dad has most of his man cave back too! Dad has kept quite busy fixing a few odds and ends around the house and helping with Abigail.

Dad went back to work today so mom is going to have to do this all on her own. We shall see how that goes. Wish us luck! We have the added benefit of granma being up the street so if we need help she can come down. Mom is slightly nervous about going it alone but is hoping we are successful.

Jack continues to be unsure of this whole change in lifestyle. He is not a fan of being the #2. He is showing some signs of being more curious about Abigail. He will come and cuddle up to you while you are holding her, tho I'm not convinced it isn't his way of demanding your attention.

Its hard for me to tell if she is growing or not since we see her all day long. But I am starting to notice that things are not looking as big on her as they did those first few days.

Her favorite spot is still laying on daddy's chest. Seems to be dads favorite too.






Dad Loves his new couch!


I think she was trying to strike a pose!








Still her favorite spot






This is about as close as Jack will get but notice he is not particularly pleased with his new location. He would much rather be where Abigail is.
