Today Kayden and I went to her two week check up. It’s hard to believe that she has been here two weeks. Wait, I take that back, it feels like a lot longer! Maybe because I have seen every hour of those two weeks tick by on the clock. Kayden is a great baby, that we all agree on, but she must learn some time soon about sleeping when the sun goes down. We discussed this issue with the doctor and she said that we should not be letting her sleep longer than 3 hours during the day. With a slight chuckle, I asked how she proposed I keep the baby awake. During the day she sleeps and she sleeps hard. Must be all the activity at night! Anyway, the doctor says to take her clothes off and to put a cold cloth on her. We tried that this evening. It didn’t work. At the doctor’s appointment we did a weight and height check as well. She now weighs 6 pounds and 12 ounces. They hope to see the baby regain the weight they lost after birth at this appointment. Kayden started at 6 pounds and 1 ounces so she is making great weight gain! I can’t help but take some credit for this! At birth she was 19 inches and today she is 21 1/2 inches. So she is growing in all the right places!

We are so blessed to have a healthy baby who has a great temperament. She is so amazing and we are so thankful for her!
