6 days old & pics

Sorry I haven't updated! :) Its been crazy here!!

Hailey is wonderful. We all love her to pieces! She is so quiet and calm. She does have her nights and days mixed up. She sleeps wonderful during the day and not so great at night, but then again she is only 6 days old!! That will change with time.

She makes the cutest noises and faces. I could watch her all day long. She is so alert when she is awake! Its awesome. She is just perfect.

The kids all love her. Noah likes to hold her and talk to her. Jaidyn is always wanting to hold her and play with her. Chase likes to watch her and will "hold" her sometimes too.

I am so amazed how great they all are with her. Don't get me wrong, Chase has been acting out more then normal & the older kids have been a bit more hyper as well, but over all its gone so well!!

Here are some pictures of miss thing:

At 6 days old: (Today)

Look at her trying to lift her head? WOW Posting the sig. I am using on my message boards here because for some reason I didn't resize the picture of the left for some reason and its a cute one!

She will be aweek old tomorrow! Its going fast already! On the 11th she has her 2 week check up at the doctor.

I am doing great. I feel wonderful. I have energy I didn't have during pregnancy. I gained only 8 lbs during the pregnancy and am now down 17 lbs as of this morning. I have lost 9 lbs more then I started at. Of course I still look bigger because of the flabby after baby tummy, but still! lol

Anyway everyone is in bed, but Hailey and I. She just nursed herself to sleep but if I lay her down she will wake up. She didn't nurse long enough to be full yet. I know her! lol She nurses in small little bits. During the day she will stay awake awhile and nurse really well before going to sleep again and then will sleep 3 hours. At night she will nurse tiny bits and fall asleep quickly and end up awake every 30 minutes to an hour.

Oh well. We will get it down soon! :) I love my little snuggly girl.
