1st real bath!

Sydney's cord finally fell off and she had her first real bath today! She didn't mind it too much...and she actually didn't poop or pee while she was in the tub! LOL


We also got some cute pictures of her stretching & trying to wake up.





And a picture of her in her "Sweetheart" shirt and her first pacifier!

2 week check-up

Sydney went for her 2 week check-up yesterday. They said she looks good :) She has grown an inch (20 inches now) and has gained back up to 6lb 2 oz. They had to get a little blood from her for a test but as soon as they finished she stopped crying! She's a big girl already! She is eating really good and sleeping a little better (which makes mommy & daddy happier!) She got to have a "binky" today for the first time...and she took to it immediately. We're hoping it'll help her sleep at night! We go back to the doctor in 6 weeks to get started on vaccines. We will try to continue to update everyone!!

Visitors!

We (well Sydney) had a few more visitors this weekend. Everyone was so excited to see her! She got to see her Granny & Grandpa Gillstrap, Papaw Tim & Booney, Uncle Mark, Aunt Marsha, Katie, & Austin!! I think they all like her a little bit :) Marsha took a few pictures of Sydney (at 1 week and 2 days old) and I wanted to share my precious baby with you all. Hope you enjoy!




This is actually Katie's hand on Sydney...it shows how tiny Sydney really is!!

She's here!

Sydney Marie was born on Jan 28th. She was 6 lb 5oz and 19 in long. She is absolutely wonderful in every way! We already can't imagine life without her....She has her daddy completely wrapped around her tiny little fingers!
