Two Weeks Old!

Layla hit her two week mark yesterday. I feel like the two weeks flew by and I am already worrying that everything is going by too quickly. I am trying very hard to live in the moment, but I just love how little and cuddly she is right now and I do not want it to go away. Everyone assures me that the other stages will be fun too.

Yesterday was Layla's doctor appointment. Her weight was up to 6lb 6oz! Last time we were at the doctor Layla was 5lb 11oz so the doctor was happy with her gain, but we still have to go back in two weeks to make sure she is still gaining weight.

Below are some pictures with visitors that came this past week. The first picture is of my mom, my aunt Ann, and my aunt Joan. It was a very fun day we spent together and as an added bonus the laundry was done, the dishes were washed, and every diaper was changed before I could even get off the couch. It was like having three doulas :-)

The second pictures are of my college girlfriends Katie and Stephanie. It was so much fun to share Layla with them and I am so glad they came and spent the day with us. Katie is a nurse that takes care of mom and baby so I asked her about a million questions while she was here. I also acted like she was my own lactation consultant! Thank you Katie (and to Stephanie for being such a good sport).
