4 WEEKS!!

Time is flying! She's 4 weeks old already. To celebrate, we went to the pool with some friends of mine (Don't worry, she didn't go in, too many germs :)) She did so well, thanks to the amazing compact stroller grandma gave me for my birthday. Thanks again, It's wonderful :)

Just sitting by the pool relaxing. She enjoyed it, as did her mama :)

Cousins Tyler and Nathan holding her. It was so sweet, Tyler was so impressed with her matching socks :)




She's had some intestinal issues, as most babies do I'm finding out :) I took her to the doctors on Monday to see what we can do to help her because she's so uncomfortable. He started her on miralax and pear juice and hopefully that combo will regulate her. No luck yet but hopefully she just needs a little more time on it :( But while we were there they weighed her again...9 lbs 2 oz. She's growing nicely. They didn't measure her height but she's seeming taller :)

3 Weeks!

It's crazy how fast time is going. Today Reece is already 3 weeks old. We love her so much and are so thankful for her and the joy she brings into our home.

As you can see, she likes to sleep during the day. She's had some stomach issues lately. We switched her formula to see if it would help. She's still trying to adjust to the change right now, but hopefully this type will work for her and she can start feeling better and stay asleep at night :)
Precious little feet, I just couldn't resist, This was taken at around 3 in the morning (her awake time :))

All tuckered out after a trip into town.

Not quite sure how she feels about things :)

Went out for a visit with great grandma and grandpa Lindley in Mt Sterling :) She just loved being held by them all!

Grandma Kelly was able to drive up for a visit and took us out to Angies for my birthday! Thanks again :)

Birthday and other quick pics

So they're a little out of order but still fun non-the-less.

My birthday fun! The day started out great. Nick got up, showered and headed to work, or so I thought...15 minutes later he showed up with Angies breakfast take out and informed me he acutally wasn't working today so we were able to spend it together. And if that wasn't enough, he got me a ipod touch. That thing is awesome. He's so sweet. Then that night my sweet mama had a steak cookout and dear James and Morgan were sweet enough to bring a delcious birthday cake. The best flavor, white with raspberry filling. It was a great day!

2 wk Dr appt and Memorial Day

Grandpa and Grandma Roskelley had a delicious steak cookout for memorial day. We then had a wicked game of kick ball and the park next door! It was a blast, although being only 2 weeks since Reece was born, I definately was filling it, not quite up to par :)

Sweet little thing sleeping peacfully so mommy and daddy could eat :)

Last Tuesday she was 2 weeks old. I can't believe how fast it's going! She had her 2 week doctor's appointment yesterday. She did so good. She's growing nicely. Shed gained a pound since birth, up to 8 lbs 0.5 oz and has grown about 2 inches, she now 20 1/4 inch long from 18 1/2. All that food she's consuming is effective :) She's in the 25% percentile for her weight and height (perfect petite little thing) and her head is 55% percentile :0 That's right :) She's such a sweet, beautiful little girl and we're so blessed to have her in out lives!

Just sprawled in the shade at first dam while daddy went golf ball hunting :) She enjoyed, just a taste of Bear Lake, I thing she'll do great :)
Bright eyed and ready for the day!

Little Stinker

So the sweet thing has started this new trend to sleep during the day and be awake at night:) She's only doing like 1 hour stretches at night and manages to do up to 4 hours during the day. If any tips on how to change that, please let us know. Currently we've been tag teaming it and taking every other night so that we get a night to recoup but when Nick goes back to work Tuesday that won't be working and I'll get most of them. Good thing she's so dang cute :)

Spider monkey strikes again :) She just loves this position, especially when her daddy holds her!
Little thing is all tuckered out! Guess no nights sleep is playing it's toll on her :)
She's not quite sure what's happening :)

PICS

I can't believe how fast she's growing! She keeps changing so quickly. Kinda sad but good that she's growing and healthy!

Bright eyed and looking beautiful ;)


Note the double chin and sweet little bird legs :)

Doctor's check-up

This morning was Reece's 1 week doctor's visit. She was still a little tired when Nick put her in her seat, but we happily made it on time. All is great with her. She's back up to her birth weight and she's as healthy as can be. The best part is that she's done with bili lights :):) They didn't even have to recheck it today (it's pretty traumatic for Nick and I). The doctor said that her color looked great and that we should just keep an eye on her. So happy day, we'll just wait for her next appt and see if they need to draw it then. I'm really hoping not because Nick will be back at work and I'll be on my own, but thinking it'll all be good. She's eatting tons, processing through that rapidly and sleeping some good stretches so we're thrilled about that. We're so blessed!! She's the best little baby ever and such a joy in our home!

She was a little tuckered out after. Note the leg, an ultimate spider monkey ;);)
