Grace's 1st Week

Grace is one week old today, what a sweetie she is. The first 36 hours at home were a bit rough as Mom hadn't figured her out yet. We think a combination of being hungry waiting for Mom's milk to come in and some tummy issues had our little angel a bit adgataded and wouldn't approve of sleeping anywhere but in mom's arms. Once she could eat all that she wanted and got some gas drops she relaxed and is sleeping just about anywhere, but mostly in her crib for naps and definitely at night. Whewwwwwwwwwwww, dodged one for now, but I am not so naive to know that I have about 1 more day until I get another curveball in the ever changing sleeping game. Grace went to the doc for a couple of weight checks and is overachieving and gaining 3 ounces a day and the doc said she looks great! Little nuances to Grace include: lots of grunting and "talking" as she puts herself to sleep in bed, sometimes lasting up to 45 minutes; she is a cuddle bug and would prefer to be curled up in a ball when snuggling; she HATES getting her diaper changed and lets us know it; she loves to play on the floor and gets excited for new sounds and will turn her head. Here a a few other pics from the week, including her first Teddy Bear that came with flowers from Great Grandma Fields!
