2 wk Dr. Appt

Today Maeve had her first official doctors appt with Dr. Haynes and it went wonderfully. Dr. Haynes is a great doctor, she took time with Maeve and interacted with her. So here are Maeve's new stats:

Weight: 6 lbs 13 oz.
Height: 20 in.
Head Circumference: 35 cm

We won't go back to the doctor until 2 months, think how big she will be then...WOW! Well, since she is napping I better go take one too. :)

Life with Maeve...week 1 & 2

Maeve enjoying tummy time
Tomorrow Maeve will be 2 weeks old...I can't believe it! We go to see the pediatrician tomorrow and I am hopeful that she has gained some weight and is at least the size she was when she was born if not bigger. I will try to give you an update on how it went. As for life around here, it sure is different but wonderful. She is a really good baby but is struggling a little bit with gas at night. Lanny has been amazing and takes her for a good chunk of the night so I can get some sleep. I try to take over in the early morning to give him some rest. I feel bad because he started back to work on Monday but is still taking the brunt of the night shift. He is such a good daddy (as if there was any doubt). We are just loving being parents, even with the sleepless nights. She is just wonderful.

Maeve Elizabeth Gridley is here!

Well, sorry that I have been so bad about posting the last couple of drs appt. but we've been in count down mode for little Miss Maeve. Thank goodness she made it here safe and sound. The delivery was fast and furious, it look only 3 hrs from my water breaking for Maeve to appear. She was born Oct. 13th at 7:01 AM, she weighed 6 lbs 6 oz and was 18 1/2 in long. She is just the prettiest baby we've ever seen...seriously. Check her out, I know you'll agree.
