She's growing!

No wonder I am so hungry and thirsty all of the time. Rose has been eating like crazy and has gained over a pound in the last week! When she was born she was 7lbs 11oz. Then at her appointment on the 28th she weighed 7lbs 8oz. And today...wait for it....9lbs 2oz!!! What on earth??? I had thought she was visibly bigger.


She has continued to wake up only once in the night time to eat, but she obviously doesn't need the extra night time nutrition! I feel very lucky as I know some babies wake up every 2 hours in the night. I just couldn't handle that. Paige woke up a lot more than that. Partly, I think, because she had a soother in the night and would wake up wanting it. Rose, so far, doesn't take a soother in the night, and not much during the day either.

We've had some great outings with Rose this week. Grandma Val and I took her to Busy Bodies and Our Special Time with Paige. She was very content and easy to please on both occasions. Sleeping and waking up to eat.
