Baby Update.

Aby
Abigail is doing great. She is eating every 2-3 hours and pooping/peeing in between. We have a weight check appointment in the morning, but all signs show that she is a happy, healthy, thriving little girl. Against the Dr's. advice we attempted to let her sleep in our room (in the bassinet) the first night home from the hospital and it was a nightmare! Every time she wiggled her pinkie toe it woke us up and we had to make sure she was okay. Last night was substantially better. We put her in her crib and turned the monitorr down low (of course the door was open and we could here everything that the monitor picked up) and she was great, only waking us up when she actually needed something (diaper change, eating, and gas drops) Aside from all of the important things like gaining weight, good sleep habits, and digestion I think she is getting cuter everyday. She is making new faces everyday, my favorite is when she is done eating she purses her lips as tight as she can, as to say stop trying to stick that thing in my mouth!

Mommy
Nikki is feeling much better. She is getting lots of rest, drinking lots of fluids and eating well. She doesn't mind the night time feedings as long as she can get some rest in between and can't wait to get out of the house and back to her daily routine.

Daddy
Stephen is beaming, I can't think of a better name for our little girl than one meaning " the joy of the father". She is definately living up to her name! Stephen is changing diapers, cooking meals, doing laundry, and helping Nikki with anything that she requests, while playing with Aby, talking and reading to her (while she is sleeping mostly), and cuddling her! He is definately in love.
