She's 5 weeks old already!

Really hard to believe she's 5 weeks old! Yesterday she was up to 6 lbs and 13 oz! I'm so glad she's gaining. She's growing fast, and I can tell by the fact that she's finally fitting into her newborn clothes. Yup, some of them have just been way too big on her, but now they're starting to fit better. She just continues to amaze me. She's a complete and total miracle, and has been a really good baby. She has been working on holding her head up (was doing it for a bit herself tonight) and managed to roll herself over from her tummy to her back a couple days ago. I have a few recent pictures included.

She's home!

Kaitlyn came home on Wednesday afternoon. We had thought she was going to come home on Tuesday, but she ended up losing weight instead of gaining on Monday so she had to stay an extra night. Needless to say we're staying busy, so if we don't answer the phone or return calls or anything, yeah, just the way it's going right now. :) Goals are to keep Kaitlyn happy and healthy (with almost daily trips to the pediatrician at this point), maybe sleep, and attempt to catch up on a few things around here. I'm hoping thank you notes get out by her first birthday, if that gives you any indication. :)

She did have hospital pictures taken (one day soon I'll even order them) and can be viewed online at http://www.our365.com/NewbornPortraits/BabyDetail.aspx?birthid=236058e0-45c7-4c36-a101-670f6a347e92&babyid=96624413-d035-456f-a664-d3e68e6ed13f
