2 Week Check Up

Sam and I went to see Dr. Plax today.  She is was a complete doll the entire time.  She is now 8 pounds 11 ounces.  She is 21 3/4 inches long.  She is just a growing machine.  Dr. Plax was completely impressed with her.  He says she is growing beautifully and told me that we did not have to wake her up in the middle of the night for a feeding.  Like I would anyway.  But that is good to hear!  

Greg and I have been working really hard to get Sam to sleep most of the night.  We keep her up near the end of the evening and attempt to feed her as much as possible in that time.  (Maybe that's why she is growing so quickly!)  For a while, it worked.  Now, not so much.  She seems to think that her bedtime is now 8:30 or so and then wakes up around 2.  Its nice to know she has a 6 hour stretch...now if we could only get her to consistently have it from 10-4.  How glorious would that be?!  

I have truly enjoyed all the help that I have received during the day with Sam.  My mom has volunteered to come Monday and Wednesday and Greg's mom has volunteered her Tuesday and Thursday.  Each week.  Pretty awesome.  Now I have to find stuff to do while they are here...like SLEEEEEEP!!!
