Beefcake

We visited the doctor on Friday for our two week visit. I know it's early on, but I can't believe that two weeks has gone by so quickly. She is changing every day. What are the next 20 years going to be like???

My understanding is that the goal is for babies to regain their birth weight by the two week milestone. No problem. Layla's birth weight was 7 pounds, 14 ounces and last Friday she was 7 pounds 10 ounces. This Friday, she was 8 pounds, 7.5 ounces. I can't believe that she gained almost a whole pound in one week. She is still tall and thin, according to the growth charts. Just what all women want; too bad she is too young to enjoy it!


Here is a picture of Layla during her "tummy time". She is very strong in her legs and mostly succeeds in pushing her face into the blanket. It is sort of funny but it makes her mad. She is working on her neck strength and she did pick her head up and turn it to the other direction this week!
