Week one coming to a close

Brooklyn has been with us almosta full week now and we have been having a wonderful time with her! We went to the pedi on Monday and she checked out great! She had already gained 3 ounces back of the 7 she lost in the hospital. Her color looks perfect, no tanning needed. Head shape is perfect as well (he only mentioned something because he knows where I work!)

She has been amazing us every day. She likes to prove us wrong already. In the hospital I mentioned how we don't have to worry about getting sprayed while changing diapers and she promply sprayed the wall while Grandma was changing her! Then we were talking about how she shouldn't be able to lift her head up very much and since then she's been lifting her head and holding it for about 10 seconds and then gently lowering it back down with amazing control. We expect her to be walking when she's 3 months! OK, maybe not! But don't tell this girl she can't do something!

Here are more pictures...what everyone really wants! Enjoy!

Isn't it amazing that they can hold their head up when they are just born and watch out if she has an upset tummy. Everything will get sprayed. lol. I love her tutu. We are so happy for you guys and can't wait to see more picutes.

ahh, the tutu! I love it. She's so adorable! I didn't think baby girls 'sprayed,' but Ava quickly proved me wrong too. It looks like you guys are doing great--but I'm still up for babysitting or making dinner ANYTIME! :)

Thanks, Brooklyn, Lisa and Greg! This ranks as one of the best birthday presents ever--getting to be there when she was born and being allowed to stay with you and help out. I think your Grandpa is jealous!
Love,
Grandma
