Adi at 2 Weeks

 Adiya Grace is now over 2 weeks old! She is a true joy. We had our two week appointment on Thursday. Adi weighed in at 8lbs 5oz. Which means she's gained a whole lb since birth (most babies gain their birth weight back by 2 weeks). She is also now 20 inches long, so she is getting taller too.  She is right at the 50% for everything, height, weight, and head size. This is most likely attributed to the fact that my girl LOVES to eat. I mean sister friend loves her some milk! This is perhaps why she has a double chin and beautiful chunky, kissable cheeks. At this point, Adi is also a champion sleeper. She has a couple of awake periods during the day (during which she is most likely eating the entire time). At night she sleeps 5-6 hours at a time. I know, can you believe it? I never thought that was possible, since it took Eli almost 15 months to do that. Oh sweet Adi Grace, momma appreciates the fact that you let her sleep. Generally she is a very content baby, although she has her moments when she gets a bit fussy...but a little milk generally makes that all better. Big brother Eli continues to love his baby sister. Every time he wakes up he asks where baby sister is. He checks on her when she's crying and loves on her. It's hilarious to hear him imitate the things we say to her as well. Things like...it's okay baby sister, oh sweet mamas, good morning sunshine, it's okay baby girl. Again, his precious heart and gentle spirit melts my heart everyday. 


She how big I am getting!

Sweet baby girl. Momma loves you too.
