My Sweet Little Pumpkin!

Elise is just like her Mommy, the girl loves to eat! We took her to the doctor on Monday for her weight check and she weighed in at 6lbs. 2oz. The nurse said they don't expect for them to be back up to their birth weight until 2 weeks old so she is doing great! She has her next appointment next Wednesday for her 2 week well baby check up. The 2 week appointment is on my due date, November 11!

She is really breaking Jason and me in to parenthood. A few nights ago, we were trying to get things ready to go to bed. In a matter of an hour we went through 3 diapers, 3 outfits, and 2 changing pad covers. It was one blowout after another, and her sweet little face showed that she was secretly laughing at us on the inside.

She had been fighting going to sleep the last few nights, but we had a very successful night last night. She only woke up at 1:30 this morning for an hour and then again at a little before 6am. She stayed up until Jason went to work at 8am and then went back to sleep. It was her best night since coming home.

We went on a walk around the neighborhood yesterday and again today with Daddy during his lunch hour. We are going to try to take advantage of the warm days and get outside while we still can.

John and Lucy came over on Saturday to bring her first Halloween costume outfit over. Just like all of her clothes is was a little big, but she was festive at least!

If you will notice, she is trying to nurse from her Daddy!
