2 Weeks Old!

Our little girl is 2 weeks old!! Holy cow! And how do we celebrate? By going to the doctor! Yippie! (not). Before we went to the doctor I dressed Paige in one of my obsessions. I LOVE this skirt! I saw it at a store when I was 7.5 months pregnant and could not stop thinking about it! I finally went back and purchased it a couple weeks before I had Paige.
And the wait for Paige to come was made about 100 times worse because of it. I would see it in the closet and just could not wait to put my daughter in it! Look how cute it is!! And it is made fifty billion times more cute by my adorable daughter! =>
I think this picture is so cute. Paige looks like she is giving a little attitude with her hand on her hip! My little diva! =>
So I might have gotten a little carried away taking pictures of Paige. haha But how could I resist these cute little feet surrounded by the cute skirt? =>
And last one of the pettie skirt, but I just had to post this face! Paige makes the funniest faces sometimes, and I am glad I caught one in a picture! => I love this little girl!!

After playing around with the camera and cute skirt it was time for the doctors. (ok not right after, there was time for feeding and spitting up and pooping...you know,the great things that come along with babies). Jared was going to come to the doctors with me but work got crazy busy and he wasn't able to get away. So it was me and Paige. I was SUPER nervous! Let me just say, the trip was not off to a good start. She woke up from her nap right as we needed to leave (3:30 because the appt was at 3:45). But that also meant that she was hungry and it was feeding time. But Paige is a good baby and was not super fussy yet. So we get in the car, but the gas light was on....we had no gas. I went to the gas station and filled up just enough to get to the doctors and back. We get to the doctors and Paige is getting fussy, and with good reason, she had not eaten in 3 1/2 hours. When we first got to the doctors I had to fill out at least five pages of papers. Let me tell you I go pretty goot at writing while balancing a fussy baby. => But it did take me quite a bit longer to get them all filled out.

So I will not bore you with the rest of the doctor visit challenges, but I will just say we got home at 5:30, and I could not feed her the time we were at the doctors. But we survived! => Oour first trip all by ourselves and we are still alive and kicking! => haha

And the news at the doctors was good news. Paige has grown almost 3 inches and is now 22 1/4 inches long, in the 97th percentile. And has gained over half a pound, and is now 8lbs 6oz. Way to grow girl! And she is good and healthy! Yay! But the doctor still advises about a strict visitor policy for a while longer. So still no introducing to the whole family and friends yet, but its getting closer! Yippie!! Horray for healthy growing girls!

It is nerve racking the first time you go out for sure! Glad to hear she passed with flying colors at the doctors. Be glad you had her in the summer time without the threat of RSV and such.
