Madeline's Two Months!

 I am having major issues with blogger, thus have been unable to post- still can't get it to work correctly, but wanted to post some pictures taken of Madeline when she turned 2 months! She is doing great.  She is very calm, goes with the flow and is a great sleeper.  She loves to smile (although its very hard to capture on camera) and likes to take in all of her surroundings.  Carlisle is still very sweet to her and likes to pat her head. At her 2 month check up, she got a great report. I will post her stats (height/weight) shortly. Here are some pictures:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Madeline's One Month!

Madeline is one month (well, yesterday). She is doing great. Everyone asks how she is sleeping- well, she generally goes to bed around 8:30 and then wakes up sometime between 2:30-4. then she sleeps until 7 or 8- which is awesome. She is a sweet baby. Here are some pictures - she was not loving having her photo taken:

Happy Easter!

We have had a great Easter weekend. Carlisle has been on several egg hunts and he loves hunting for eggs! Madeline is doing great. Carlisle loves his "baby sister" which is how he refers to her. He loves to pat her head and kiss her. Here are some of pictures:

Carlisle headed to our neighborhood Easter egg hunt. It started raining about 30 seconds before the hunt was to start:

Madeline's First Week

Madeline has had a great first week and a half. She is a good eater and sleeper, which has made it nice for us. She has had 2 nights where she slept 6 hours straight! She went to the doctor this past Saturday to have her billirubin checked and she was already back to her birth weight of 6lbs 3 oz and her billirubin level was okay. We go for her 2 week check up on Monday. I swear she has grown so I am anxious to see what her weight will be. Carlisle is very sweet with her. He wakes up asking where his baby sister is, and when she cries, he makes sure we know that she is crying. He likes to pet her head and he immediately goes searching for her when he comes home from school. He also enjoys rocking her while she is in her swing. He rocks a little too hard right now, but he is getting better with it. Here are some pictures:

She loves to sit near the windows in our kitchen area and get some sun:

Due to jaundice, the doctor wanted us to get her some sunlight:

This was her leaving the hospital:
