Adrianna (4) loves dresses and pretending to be a princess. Today, she decided Bree also needed to wear a dress so she could be a “baby princess”.

Bree’s First Bath
Now that Bree’s umbilical cord is gone, we were able to give her a real bath tonight. She wasn’t too crazy about it. Also, be sure to check out the previous post – I updated it tonight to include pictures. 🙂
Three Weeks
Bree is three weeks old as of yesterday. Just a couple days ago, Greg mentioned that she is already starting to look like a different baby. Her cheeks are getting chubbier and she even is developing a little double chin. The 0-3 month clothes now fit without making her look like she is swimming in […]
Two Weeks
Bree had her two week checkup today. It was all good news. The jaundice is gone and her weight gain has been good. She is up to 22 inches long, placing her in the 97th percentile for height. She weighed in at 8 pounds, 3 ounces, putting her just one ounce heavier than Adrianna was […]
Glider Chair
Currently just sitting in the glider chair with a sweet newborn babe sleeping on my lap. And that pretty much describes the past couple of weeks for me.
One Week
I cannot believe Bree turned one week old yesterday. I used to think that it would be nice to skip the newborn stage or first six weeks, but I have really enjoyed this week with Bree. Other than the sleepless nights, of course. I think my enjoyment is due, in part, to all the help […]
Feeding the Baby
It seems like most of my days are spent feeding Bree. I am glad Greg brought our glider chair downstairs. He also brought Adrianna’s rocking chair downstairs. This has worked out well, as she and I can feed our babies together. 🙂
Jaundice Update
I think we have been to the doctor’s office or the hospital lab every day since Christmas day. Bree’s poor little heels have been pricked so many times for jaundice tests (and also blood sugar tests while we were still in the hospital because of low blood sugar due to my having gestational diabetes). The […]
Our Second Day at Home
Since we left the hospital a day early, Bree had a doctor appointment this morning to check her for jaundice and also to check her weight. Her weight was as expected (7 pounds). The doctor thought she did appear a little yellow so she had to get a blood test to check her bilirubin levels. […]
Introducing…Bree Nova
Our new sweet daughter has arrived! I am still in awe that we now have two precious little girls. Since I have gestational diabetes, we were scheduled to go in for an induction on the morning of Tuesday, December 22. I would be 39 weeks along at that point. Adrianna hadn’t shown any inkling of […]
