Today is my actual due date, September 23...... Can't believe how fortunate I am to have had 2 1/2 weeks with my little pumpkin already! We are growing tons and developing in so many ways already! Addie fit in to her first newborn outfit last night....yeah!!! She is mostly still wearing premies.....however, it won't be long! She feels a little heavier each time I hold her and has to be well over 6 lbs by now!
We spend our days on our gym mat, in our vibrating chair, napping on mom or in the crib, reading stories, singing, walking with Wally, and visiting with our friends who have been so supportive and loving! The evenings are a lot of daddy time when he gets home!
Addie has put herself on about a 3 hour feeding schedule....she definitely is ready at this point and lets me know it! She loves her hands and loves to swing at the breast when she gets really ravenous! ouch!!
Typically we have found her to be more fussy in the evenings/nights...with the exception of last night when she slept from 10pm to 2am!!!...amazing! We are both getting by on about 4-6 hours of sleep cumulative a night....but we know this is all short lived and trying to enjoy it as much as possible! Noah and I are taking shifts sleeping on the couch with her in the bassinet and resting in bed....that way we don't have to both be awake at the same time all night long. Seems to be working well so far!
This has been a fun week of visits including Glee Night at Kat's on Monday and meeting many of mommy's girlfriends, Courtney and our new friend Molly (born September 13) Tuesday morning, and Anne Devine yesterday! So much fun to show her off!!! We may have a couple more visitors this afternoon!!! :-)
Enjoy these pics from the last week or so! :-)
