3 weeks!

I cannot believe that Charlotte has been with us for 22 days now. She's such an angel and we are having so much fun with her. She is still a great sleeper giving us 5-6 hours some nights which is much appreciated. Other nights she wakes up every 3-4 hours to eat. People keep telling us that she will change, but so far she's been the same little angel that we brought home. We had her 2 week check up last week and we are the proud parents of healthy baby! Charlotte slept through the entire thing. The doctor actually wrote "perfect" in the comments. We already knew that :) She is in the 50% for weight and 90% for height! We have a tall skinny baby on our hands! Check out these feet!
We have ventured out of our house several times and Charlotte has slept through all of them, shocking I know. Dan had to go back to work this week which was really hard. I have been spoiled having him home since Charlotte was born. Everything seemed so easy when he was here because we did everything together. Tuesday when he went back to work I had to figure out how to take care of Charlotte by myself. The week got better and today Charlotte and I took our first shopping trip together. She is too long for her newborn clothes, so I have been looking for two piece outfits to fit her long skinny legs. During the day I'm trying to let her nap in her crib and she doesn't seem to know the difference. We like her sleeping in our room at night but I would like to try and move her to her room when I go back to work.
We are so crazy in love with Charlotte and are excited to spend this weekend together.

  1. a lot of moms do baby legs. have you received any yet? it may be too soon as she may be too skinny to fill them out but it's an idea. owen as well was skinny and long. those onesie extenders will definitely help you out with extending the life of your N, 0-3, 3, 3-6, 6, 9 month etc etc onesies! :)
