2 Months or 2 Weeks?

Today Caroline is officially 2 weeks old based on her due date and 2 months old tomorrow based on her arrival. So, according to the doctors at our NICU follow-up appointment last week, we still have a few months of sleepless nights ahead of us. We celebrated leaving our heart monitor behind at our appointment and the steady weight gain she has had since transitioning home. She is just below the 3rd percentile, so lots of room for improvement but she's making progress.

Today, we celebrated our last home health visit with nurse Lisa. Although we enjoyed seeing her a few times a week, mom is thrilled to have open mornings and less pressure to be sure we're ready on time. 

Over the weekend we also finalized our nannies for when I return to work in just a few weeks. Hard to believe my 12 weeks is up so soon - our time together has gone soooooo quickly, but we're making the most of each day and praying for a few hours of sleep each night.

Big sister has been celebrating friend birthdays for the past few weekends and when you're three everything is about being a princess. Check out the hair and outfits - gotta love girls!

Georgia continues to be a great big sister - helping out on all diaper changes and feedings. There is also great fascination with why she can't have milk for her sister - so I can imagine the hysterical conversations at daycare! We can hardly wait for them to grow up together and see how their personalities emerge.

Momma in the making...

Caroline has gained lots of weight over the past couple of weeks and proudly displayed 5 pounds, 14 ounces today on her last home health visit. At 2 months old she still has lots of growing to do, but we're so encouraged with her progress. Here's to full tummies, less reflux and greater interest in sleep my dear angel. Happy 2 month birthday!
