Growing

Ellie is going from newborn to baby much faster than I thought. She now weighs 9lbs 13oz and is 23 inches long. She grew 1 inch over the last two weeks. I would be wondering what Victoria fed her, if I didn’t see it firsthand. Milk does do the body good. She is too long but to thin for her 3 months clothes.

When changing or feeding her in the middle of the night we try not to interact with her too much. The overnight goal is to feed than back to bed with no playtime or fussing. She has learned this and will try everything to get a reaction from Victoria and I. Smiling, funny faces, kicking her legs, waving her arms, and very cute baby sounds are near impossible to resist.

She's so big! She's pretty clever. You guys seem to have it pretty sorted, it's so tempting to play with them when they're being so cute!
