Well, the first couple weeks seem to be a blur. It is amazing how much our lives have changed for the better in such a short amount of time. Morgan is keeping us busy and we have had lots of help from both of our families. She is really something else and I am so in awe of what an amazing blessing from God she is. He consistently reminds me that he has big plans for our little girl. We are already starting to see some of her personality. She is quite a stinker and has the funniest facial expressions. Morgan is so sweet but at the same time let's us know exactly what she is thinking! (Why doesn't that surprise me?)
Morgan had her two-week follow up appointment on Tuesday. Right before that appointment, we had three really rough nights with her up crying and the doctor says she probably has colic. She is up most hours of the night with the exception of last night! She actually slept for 2 3-hour stretches and it was the most sleep I have gotten since we've come home. Jeremy and I take shifts during the night and realize that the colic won't last forever. Our pediatrician was so impressed with how well she is eating and putting on weight. She was 8 lb., 1 oz when she was born and was 7 lb. 5 oz at her 3 day follow up. She had already gained back that weight and is over 9 pounds. Dr. Henderson called her "Porky Peters" at one point during the appointment and said he was very pleased. I'm sure she will really appreciate that one day.
Well, I have definitely fallen down on the job with not posting many pics this week. Hopefully we will get some posted later today.
