Two and a Half Weeks

Lil sis had a doctor's visit this morning. I was very interested to see how much weight she had put on. 9 days ago at our first doctor's appointment she weighed 6 pounds 2 ounces. Well today she weighed 6 pounds 15 ounces. Only 1 ounce away from 7 pounds! She is doing great.

She nurses every 3 hours, almost to the minute.
She wakes up about 3 times during the night to nurse and then goes right back to sleep.
She sleeps in her crib during the night, however likes to be near me for her naps during the day.
She rarely crys, except when she is ready to eat.
Her cord stump fell off a few days ago, so she now can have a tub bath (which we haven't done yet).
Eleanor's temperment is amazingly sweet. She is starting to wake up from "newborn coma" a bit and is staying alert for longer stretches of time.

We just love this sweet pink baby and so do our boys!
