Two Week Checkup

As of today, Natalie weighs 10 lbs. 1 oz.! I brought her in for her two week check up and everything is looking great. The one thing that the Doctor wants to get checked is her eyes, so he referred us to someone else for that. She has crossed eyes, but many babies experience that in their first few weeks. He just wanted to make sure that it isn't something more.

We have enjoyed all of our visitors that we have had the past couple of weeks since we've been home. I don't think we've gone one day without having at least one visitor! It sure is nice for me to get some adult interaction too! Here are some of the people that have met Natalie or come to visit in the last week or so:

Uncle Josh


Cousin Dave


Beth


Grandpa Doug and Grandma Kim

The Clutter Family

Here's a picture of the three of us from today:




We also had visitors today - Eric, Colleen and Sami Bergh. Thanks for the pizza and pasta!

How Time Flies!

It's amazing that just two weeks ago I was still pregnant and we were anticipating going in on the 14th to have our baby! And now, almost two weeks later, this is what we get to see every day:



Although taking care of another person is a lot of work and can be stressful (not to mention the lack of sleep!), she is definitely worth it all. We can't imagine our lives without her now and would do anything for her. We thank God that He brought her into our lives at this time and can't wait to see how she grows in the coming weeks, months and years!

This is one of my favorite pictures so far:
