Life as a Baby...

The highlights of life with baby are simple.

Quinn had her first bottle recently -- once breastfeeding was "well-established," I started expressing milk so that other people could feed her occasionally (someday, perhaps I'll even be able to sleep through a middle of the night feeding!). Here she is getting her first bottle:



Yum, Yum!



Yesterday, she had her second doctor's appointment (the 4-week checkup, a few days early because we're traveling for Christmas). Our big little girl weighed in at 10 lbs 2 oz and is now 21 1/2 inches long! She's gained 2 pounds and grown 2 inches since she was born.



And, she's practicing for her life of fame by averting her face from the paparazzi already!



She's also been getting in some quality father-daughter bonding time. She looks a little startled -- Tim is probably making a funny face at her.

I would like to sign up on the list for the middle of night feeding right now!

Wow, your baby is big! We have the bottle going now too, it's a great thing. Fiona didn't take to it right away, but now she's pretty good with it.

Soon you won't even have to feed her in the middle of the night! Things just keep getting better and better...
