Two Weeks

Well Maddie has been in our lives for two weeks now and I am loving being a mom. She's such a sweet baby and I love holding her and watching her expressions. While I know most of the facial expressions aren't something she has control over but they are fun to watch regardless.

On Thursday Maddie had her two week appointment at the doctors. She weighed in at 10lbs and 2oz which puts her in the 98% for both her height and her weight. Her head circumference is in the 90-95th percentile so she's proportional and healthy. I have started going through her clothing and most of the newborn clothing is being put away as she's either too big or too long for them but the 0-3 month outfits some of them are too big. We're working our way through it but with all her handmedowns there isn't a lack of clothing for her to wear.

Yesterday Maddie had some visitors in the form of Jym's friend James (who was dropping off some beer and hung out for a while) and then our friend's Rob and Christine came by for a few hours. She slept through most of both visits but did get held by everyone. Tomorrow her Geepa and Uncle Zack come in so Zack can look at Roanoke College but they'll come visit for a bit as well.

We've also made our plans to head up to NH/ME in early January. We'll be gone for 10 days and it will be Maddie's first time meeting most of her relatives. We're looking forward to it and there will be lots of pictures to come. For now here is Maddie at 2 weeks.
