Two Weeks Old!

Envelopes bearing Nadia's name have already been making their way to our mailbox. Her first piece of mail arrived on 7-3 (her birth certificate). I thought that was pretty fast! That day we also got a wedding invitation in the mail, and the envelope inside had all three of our names. :-) Yesterday her health insurance card came in the mail; I need to call them as #1 it just said "Baby Girl Kennedy" and #2 they automatically assigned her the same primary care doctor that Paul & I have whereas I actually have selected a pediatrician for her (rather than a family care doctor). Tomorrow she will see Dr. M again. I am praying for good news regarding her weight!!!

I didn't eat any chocolate on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday. I had a Klondike bar last night which had some chocolate. I am happy to say that her poopy diapers seem the same from Saturday night through Monday night so it doesn't seem to matter whether I eat chocolate or not. I'll continue to monitor that though to make certain what I eat isn't bothering her in any way.

Sunday night was her BEST night in terms of sleep. I got about 5 hours of sleep over a period of 9 hours. WOOHOO! Her fussy period was shorter that night. However then yesterday she had a harder time sleeping in the pack n' play during the day. Of course if she wants to be held I would MUCH rather do so during the day than at 3am. :-) Last night was back to an average night. She nursed almost nonstop from 8pm to 1am. I kid you not. Then finally she started sleeping. Well I will hope for more nights like Sunday night, but until that happens it just means I need to take more naps during the day. It would help A Lot if Paul could hold her. He hasn't held her since Saturday morning before he went to the doctor for his poison ivy.

I am including a photo of the house we are in the process of buying. The couple gave a counter offer which was $5k higher than our offer (which was $10,900 less than their current asking price). We accepted their counter offer! They came down in price $38,900 over the past 4 months. Now to just keep praying that the man who is buying our house won't change his mind. He is coming to see the house at 11:00 on Friday. We are set to close on both houses on August 11.

I also have included a couple of photos of Nadia. I had to take one of her belly button. Someone said her "outie" might become an "innie;" we shall see. I can't wait to be able to post a photo of her smiling. It just melts my heart! Her dimple is just adorable!!!
