Mama's little Chunky Monkey!

Last night, was ten times better for all here at our house. Josie slept better, Mommy slept better, and Daddy slept even better than the night before even though he slept good the first night. Josie has her nights and days mixed up we believe. She sleeps very well during the day time hours and not as well during the night time hours. Which is common in babies. We are trying to keep her awake during the day more, so she will sleep better at night. It will get better over time.

We ventured out to the doctors this morning for Josie's 2-day appointment. Everything went very well. We can not believe that she is actually 4-days old now. Where has the time gone already. She weighs in at 7 pounds 4 ounces. Which is great! Babies loose a little weight after they are born and then gain it back. She is in the 33%-tile for her weight, 54%-tile for her height, and 17%-tile for her head circumference.

The doctor said she is just perfect. Yeah!


She has her Daddy among others wrapped around her little finger. As you can tell, he is spoiling her rotten already, but who could blame him she is just to darn cute!

Josie loves to cuddle up with Mommy. Her cheeks are just to darn cute that you just want to squeeze the them, but Mommy promised her she would not. Her cheeks are what got her the nickname for now "Chunky Monkey." She is not fat, she is perfect. I just love those cheeks!

Lots of people have been asking how I am doing and to answer that question, WONDERFUL! I feel great, can get around just wonderfully, and could not have asked for a more precious baby girl in the world! Lets just say I am on "Cloud 9" with my little girl!

Hi Jennifer and Brent,

Josie is absolutely adorable. I saw Debbie at the booster meeting last night and she said that you had her on Sunday. Congratulations! She really is a sweetie. Jennifer, you look really good. Just wanted to say congratulations and may God Bless your little family.
