Arwen was a BIG girl yesterday

While at the base for Lexi's 2 week check up we took the girls into the immuzation room to get their flu shots, they said they could have the mist since they were old enough, so they were happy about that, but Arwen needed a shot for her second Hep A and they did it in the arm this time and she did not cry or even whimper. She was such a big girl with it.

2 week check up

Lexi had her 2 week check up at the base yesterday. She was 7lbs 7 oz and 20 3/4 inches, so that means she has grown a little.

The doctor said that she looked good, still a little yellow but its going away and her right eye's tear duct is still closed, something we knew after having Arwen's do the same thing.

She also had to have her second PKU test done afterwards at the hospital, that went good.

I will post more pictures later today after I get some school work done. She stayed awake yesterday for over 3 hours, the longest time so far. She is a lot more aleart and is trying to smile and will roll off the shoulder into your arms to lay on her back.

Life in the house

Things are going pretty good with our new addition. Lexi does not care one bit that the girls are running around yelling. She is not a loud cryer and does not cry very often. She also settles down very fast after she starts crying.
Lexi is feeding every 3-4 hours sometimes she will feed after 2 hours, but that seems to be more at night and not during the day. I most of the time have to wake her during the day to eat since she will sleep all day if I let her. She is still a bit yellow, but the doctor said that should go away after time with more feedings and more time in the sun.

The girls are loving having a baby sister around the house, They are always giving her kisses and watching her sleep and eat. They come in the room first thing to see her.

I have been doing good. I have been having a bit of back problems after that crappy back labor, but I am sure it will ease off after a while and after I get an adjustment done. I have so far lost about 15 pounds in 6 days and I only gained 17 pounds during the pregnancy. I won't do any working out until after my 6 weeks check up that will be near the end of March, but we are doing a little walking to the local park for the girls when its warm. Today was a warm day, but i won't take both girls and lexi all by myself to the park which is about 3 or so blocks away by the creek.

Lexi has her 2 weeks check up on Feb. 27th at the base, we will post how that goes!

Lexi is here!!!!

Ok well we finally had Lexi at 12:11 pm today. She was 7 pounds 2 ounces and 20 inches long.

I can now say for sure without a doubt that back labor should NOT be done natural!!!!!!!

We were allowed to go home today and got home at about 10pm, the shortest stay in the hospital after having a baby, but so glad, I may actually get good sleep when she is not hungry and wanting to eat. My bed is so much nicer than that of the hospital.

Here are a few pictures that we got of her.
