3 weeks

Can't believe it's already been 3 weeks!! Dad is back to work this week, which sucks for me cause he is a huge help, but so far it's gone pretty well! We still get out of the house everyday and its been going good. Tomorrow Grandma Payne gets to watch Melah for a couple hours while mom cashes in on a gift certificate I got for my birthday to have a Manicure and Pedicure! I'm so excited and looking forward to it! Melah is sleeping 2 4-5 hour shifts at night, so that's a huge help! She is a great sleeper but she fights going back to sleep like crazy! Some nights we have good night, and some not so good! It's a lot of trial and error still at this point, trying to get things figured out for when I go back to work! Lots of work, but we are managing it!

Well tomorrow we will have a 2 week old! Today we had another appt and she gained almost a pound since last week! She is now at 8 lbs 14 oz! She is a little eater!! She is a fantastic sleeper during the day, but still having troubles at night. She will sleep really good, but getting her back to sleep seems to be a problem. Still working out some kinks. :). Dr says she is healthy and looks good. She lost her belly button last night, so night it's bath time!!! Since it was 60 degrees out today, I decided to put her in our wrap and go for a short walk to the mailbox to see how she liked it! She loved it and so did I! It was so nice to carry her around without all the weight on my shoulders and feeling like she is safe! We are still getting up and out of the house everyday just to see some fresh scenery and so we don't go crazy sitting at home!
