One Week Old!

Wow, I can't believe the past week has gone by so fast! Our little monkey feet is already one week old! She is still as amazing and beautiful as she was just seven days ago.


We've had lots of firsts this week: her first car ride, her first night at home, her first (sponge) bath, her first bottle, her first time in her bouncy and her swing and her pack 'n' play, her first christening (she peed on Daddy's shirt, there's a picture below). Mommy and Daddy have been enjoying them all! We're getting to know her squeaks and grunts and other noises, and Mommy finally feels comfortable enough to sleep when baby is sleeping. We've been lucky enough for the past two nights to be able to all go to bed together (Danielle sleeps in her pack 'n' play) and get a few hours of sleep. Mommy and Daddy are taking turns with nighttime feedings (Daddy has some bottles of breastmilk available in the fridge) and that has been awesome!


Danielle has had a few pediatrician visits to monitor her bilirubin levels (for jaundice) and she has eye boogies, probably from a clogged tear duct. So far normal baby stuff. She is really sweet and rarely fussy, but she does have a stinky butt! We are going to get pictures taken professionally on Wednesday, and announcements should be out shortly after that.


Here are a few more pictures from the past three days:
