Baby update..


Things are still going as good as ever with little Cherisey! We are crazy about her and already dreading the day we may have to hand her over to her determined parents. We'll still have her for "a while" but the end is totally unpredictable. :(

She is a darling angel when it comes to night time. I feed her around 9-10 pm and put her to bed. She never wakes up until 4 am. And even then, she'll sleep again until 8-9 am! What a darling, huh?!

Cherise is still snoozing like a typical newborn- all day long. (Off/On) Rather than being balled up in the fetal position, she is usually stretched out (even her legs!), hands open, head flopped back and even her mouth is often open! It's the funniest thing ever! She is a DEEP sleeper too, we resume life as usual and I even vacume right by her and she sleeps through it.

A home health nurse comes by once a week (for a month) to check on her and today she weighed in at 7 lbs. Last Tues, she was 6.12, one lb over her birth weight. Growing steady and finally fitting into newborn clothes much better! Can you believe she'll be ONE month on Sunday?

She is beautiful. I can't believe how tiny she still is. Reminds me of Hunter when he was that young.
