S is for Sleep

I slept 6 hours in a row last night! Mommy and daddy are so happy. I had a big dinner which made me very tired. When I woke up I felt like a new baby. Maybe I even grew? I might sleep again tonight but we'll see =)

Three Weeks Old on Chanukkah

However you want to spell it, it's the 4th night of The Festival of Lights and also 3 weeks from my birth day.

Don't blow out the candles Lily

Grandpa (Big Joe) & Grandma L were in DC to celebrate the first night. They were so excited to meet me. I was being a bit cranky but Grandpa's warm elbow put me to sleep and Grandma's love made me feel all snuggly & warm. Grandma H, Grandpa S & Aunt Debbie came over to celebrate. Thank you Aunt Debbie for my funny Yiddish book. Thank you to Grandma H for the yummy latkes and Grandpa S for the warm blankets. Thank you to Grandpa & Grandma C for all the love & kisses.

Goodnight everyone!

Mommy and Daddy have lots of photos to post on my blog, but for now we
are all off to sleepy town.

Two Weeks Old

Yay! I was two weeks old yesterday, Tuesday, December 4th. I've gained 13oz and grew 2 more inches. I'm in the 84% percentile for height! Hopefully I'm tall like daddy. I like my checkups because my doctor looks like mommy and is very nice. I may be going through one of many growth spurts because I'm very hungry all the time. I like to spit up all over mommy these days. She doesn't mind because I make cute faces and coo at her...and all is forgiven. Big news- my belly button stump fell off the other day. Daddy had the pleasure of throwing it out. Now I have a cute button! We can't tell yet if it'll be an inny or an outie.

Most of the time I'm happy and make silly faces. Other times I am hungry, want cuddles or have a wet diaper...

SAD

First Bath

On my 6th day of life (11.26.12) I had my first bath. As you can see from the photos, I'm not sure if I liked it or not. I peed on Grandma so I guess I was relaxed. Sorry! I'm still too small for my bath seat but it did the job. Mommy and Daddy gave me another bath recently and I cried and cried...maybe when I'm bigger it'll be more fun.

Best. Daddy. Ever

This is my daddy. Isn't he handsome? I think so. He loves mommy so much he got her beautiful sparkly earrings. Mommy calls him 'Nurse Joe' because he helped so much when I refused to come out of her tummy. She thinks he is the world's greatest husband and they are best friends. Their love made me and now I'm going to keep them up all night to question their decision. Just kidding!

Still looking good with no sleep in 3 weeks

...are a girl's best friend...

Love you Daddy. See you next diaper change!
