Kaitlyn's First Real Bath



Here are some pictures of Kaitlyn taking her first real bath. Her umbilical cord fell off this week, so now there are no more sponge baths for her. She seems to really like it because she is in the water and it keeps her a lot warmer. We also went to her two week appointment and the doctor said she is perfect. She weighed in at 8 pounds 5 ounces, which is great because she is gaining 1 and a 1/2 ounces per day. Melanie is also excited because the doctor said that this coming week we should start to introduce the bottle to Kaitlyn as well since Melanie will be going back to work. This means that when I don't have early school I get to do the middle of the night feeding (lucky me).

You guys should come over sometime and see her. She is definitely growing. No more newborn outfits for her.

She's so cute, I'm so glad you finally posted more pics of her. Are you exhausted? Are you getting any sleep? Candice says shes a cutie!!!

I am definitely getting more sleep than I was her first week, but it isn't necessarily at night. I kind of just get it when I can. She is a real cutie though.
