Slumming it at the Prather House

Looking like a gangster in her monkey swaddle blanket

Today was the first the day Caroline and I were all alone at home. So far so good. She insists we watch the DIY network all day. Today has consisted of sleeping, eating, and getting a diaper change
We had her 2 week check up this morning and she back up to her birth weight and should be over 5 pounds by the end of the week. The doctor we go to is amazing and answered all our silly first time parent questions:
  • She sneezes a lot is that ok?- normal
  • Her belly button has a ton of dried blood in it how do we clean it out?- doctor cleaned it out said it looked good.
  • We noticed she has been wheezing after the dust storm yesterday.- normal
  • She hiccups all the time is she ok? -normal
  • Is her color ok?- really pink
  • Weight?- Gaining like a champ- last night she ate every 2 hours. Today it back to 3 to 4
  • Skin is dry- she is shedding her newborn skin
We don't go back till the middle of April so I will be calling all my experts to put my mind at ease.
