Raz Choc Chip

I think I enjoyed my black raspberry chocolate chip ice cream more than daddy for his birthday.

Growing Girl

Diana had her weight check today and in the 2 weeks, she has gained a pound. She is now 7# 8 oz. Go Diana! The doctor said whatever we were doing was working so to stick with it. I am going to try and nurse her 4 times a day now instead of 3. She was on a 8, 11, 2 and 5 am/pm eating schedule but we tried changing it to 9, 12, 3 and 6 but she keeps going back to the original one. Oh well. We are adding formula to her bottles so that they are 22 caloric intake, which means 1 tsp of formula for every 3 oz of breast milk. She normally drinks between 40-70 ml, or around 2 to 2 1/2 oz every 3 hours. She knows when it is 3 hours too!!! I used to have to set an alarm to feed her, not anymore. I could tell she has put on weight as her little cheeks are chubby and she has a double chin. She no longer wears preemie clothes, actually only did the first couple days home. She has been wearing newborn but I think those days might be limited as she can barely stretch out her legs in them. Her hair has really come in and is starting to be awake more.

Jonathan had a fun morning today watching Doug work on our back porch. He had to show Doug all his tools. I am debating keeping him home tomorrow, at least in the morning so he can "help" Doug.

Dunstan Baby Language

So last night was Diana's worst night of sleeping yet, not sure if she slept much. We decided to watch the Dunstan Baby Language video Shonda let us borrow, which talks about the different cries and what they mean. We figured out that Diana needs to burp more. Especially important to get a burp before you lay her down. Sleeping much better now. Thank you Shonda!!!

Happy Birthday Daddy

We celebrated Daddy's birthday today with Kyle and Amanda and then GB and Grandpa Weeks came for dessert. Aunt Amanda did a good job getting baby Diana to relax. I of course had to help daddy blow out the candles and open the presents. I love birthdays!!!

Cooking Breakfast

I helped mommy cook breakfast this morning. I was very busy in my kitchen and had such concentration.

Daddy let mommy sleep in this morning and this is what was posted on Facebook by Brad:

Now I can get back to reading the paper, "Jonathan, hold it a little higher, and when you get done I could use a warm up on the coffee."

Diana 1 Month

Diana is one month old already. She is already growing up too fast in my opinion and has changed a lot since she was born. Her she is laying on the quilt Nana made her with the bear I knitted for her.
