Two weeks old


Two weeks normally seems like a significant amount of time, but when you are on maternity leave, time seems to move MUCH faster! I am so thankful that Camryn will be older when I have to leave her to go back to work, but even with the extended leave with summer break, it still feels like September will be here before we know it!

Today is actually the first day that I have both girls home with me on my own for the whole day. I am feeling grateful for sunshine in the forecast so we can get outside together! I am also happy that tomorrow is Saturday so we can have Ry home with us for two days - it's always more fun when we are all together. :)

Yesterday we had Camryn's two week appointment, and everything looks great!
Stats...

Weight when she was born - 7lbs 6oz
Weight when we had her appointment last Monday - 7lbs 1oz
Weight yesterday - 8lbs 10 oz!!!!!! (Just above the 50th percentile)
She is a good eater! :)

Height - 20.5 inches (50th-75th percentile)

2 weeks old



Fun we've had this past week...

We've taken Taylor to preschool swim time at the splash zone a couple of times



Blocks

Mowing the lawn for dad :)

Camryn hanging out in the Moby (big fan of "baby wearing" this time around - helps me chase around Taylor AND hold Camryn at the same time :))

So big! 

Reading

Popcorn for snack

Both girls being entertained by the Baby Einstein music toy

Taylor likes to get really close to Camryn. She will also tell us when Camryn is crying, "Listen mama, Camryn crying!" When Camryn is napping in the pack 'n' play, she will say "Where Camryn??" She still likes to "pet" her little sister, and give her a "pound" or fist bump. :) It was also fun to see her reaction yesterday when Camryn and I picked up Taylor at daycare, and Taylor was so excited to see her little sister and show her teacher who Camryn was. :) Only a few moments of jealousy - where she will want me to give Camryn to daddy to hold, or she wants us to put Camryn down in her bouncy seat. For the most part things are going really well still!


Here's to making it through another week!!

  1. Taylor looks like she is a very gentle big sister! Congratulations on making it through week 2! Pretty soon, your busy life with two little ones will feel quite normal. lol
