Home Alone

Tuesday was my first day to be home alone with Abby.  Things went really well.  It is funny, I felt like I was busy all day, but when I looked back on what I had done I don't think I accomplished a whole lot.  Taking a shower and getting laundry done takes a lot more effort now with worrying about Abby and soothing her if she starts to cry.  

On the sleeping front, she loves to sleep...during the day.  On Tuesday she slept for 5 1/2 hours in the middle of the day and of course since she had gotten all of that sleeping out of her system she was up about every hour and a half, this made for a long night. Hopefully we can work on turning this around. 

Abby had her two week doctors appointment yesterday and she a healthy little girl.  The doctor said they like to see babies back to their original birth weight and she surpassed that and is now 9 lbs 8 oz and 21 in. long! 

And now a few photos...


My mom got this dress for Abby, we put it on Abby before she had to fly back home.  It's still a little big for her, but it's still cute.

Abby is so tiny! 

Sleeping like the best of them!
