little squirt

(this is us waiting for the doctor to come in)

well, first of all...

HAPPY DUE DATE, EDEN! :-D ...which, if you've been keeping up, means she's 6 weeks old today!

we went to the doctor this morning for a well baby check-up and ...ugh... SHOTS! poor thing turned purple she was screeeeeeaming! :(
....buuuut, she was asleep 5 minutes later... with 3 bugs bunny bandaids on her legs

she was a WHOPPING 6lb 2oz... putting her in the 10%

and she was 19" long... between the 25-50%

and i don't remember her head circumference, but that was in the 25-50%, too...

looong and lean!

the doctor said she's doing PERFECT. she's picking her head up, following us with her eyes, sleeping up to 6 hour stretches and smiling (which i'm not sure is intentional, yet)... oh, and she's CONSTANTLY moving... all the time--well, unless she's zonked out! :)

she does have the tiniest little umbilical hernia--which the doctor isn't the least bit concerned about--supposedly, it will fix itself...

and what we thought may be a little red mark from her montiors in the nicu, has been identified as a little red birthmark--its between her big toe and her 2nd toe... and i think its cute.

well, that's about all i can think of in the way of updates for now...
