Life as Three...

Life with Mia Jane is just, well...SUPER! Yes, we're tired all the time and we're still trying to master the diaper changes, but overall, it's perfect. Honestly, I always sort of scoffed at people who were so gaga over their kids (I mean, c'mon can't they get a life?)...but now it totally makes sense. I can't imagine life without her and can't remember life before she was here. Needless to say, she's definitely turned our world upside down in a great way.

Here is what's been happening in the first 2 weeks since Mia Jane was born:

1. Grown 2 inches.

2. Weight fluctuated from 7 lbs. 10 ounces to 6 lbs. 15 ounces and back up to 7 lbs 15 ounce.

3. We had to make 3 different trips to the pediatrician to check her bilirubin levels because she had a little bit of jaundice. As of yesterday, we are now free and clear of jaundice.

4. Mia got her first Hepatitis B shot. Mommy cried more than the baby. Seriously.

5. During a diaper change, Mia kicked too hard and knocked off her umbilical cord stump before it was ready. Daddy had to make an emergency pediatrician visit to fix it.

6. At her 2 week check up, the pediatrician said she has the strength of a 2 month old.

7. At her 2 week postpardum check up, mommy has already lost 30 pounds of baby weight. Omg! Only 30 more pounds to go. Omg.

OH! And Goose is being such a great kitty. To be honest, he isn't even interested in her in the slightest. It's like he knows that he's not supposed to touch her or something. And actually, he's much sweeter now that she's home. Almost like he's saying..."I'll be good, promise. Just give me a little attention too!" I love my cat.

Our first big outing will be on Thursday for Christmas Eve Church and dinner at a friend's home in Plano! Then off to Granbury for Christmas Day at JC's parent's house! I FINALLY get to dress her up to go out in public...cause let's face it, she's been in onesies since we got home cause she's just gonna pee or puke on them anyway and since we're just at home, who cares, right?

Happy Holidays to ALL!!
