Madelyn's first 2 weeks

After a smooth delivery and a nice quick stay in the hospital, we were on our way home! We had some anxiety about introducing Madelyn to Quigley but to our surprise, he was so gentle and sweet with her and continues to be a doting big brother!

I hesitate to comment on Madelyn and how she's doing because I dont want to jinx anything, but I certainly feel like things are going pretty well. She typically sleeps for 3 or 4 hours at a time, a few times we've even hit 5 at night, she has a hearty appetite and loves to be held upright on your chest! It's remarkable how much changed in just the first 2 weeks, for instance she grew 3/4 of an inch and gained another lb - putting her in the 95% for height and 90th for weight! I'm not too surprised that most of her newborn clothes don't fit anymore, yup, she's my daugheter :) We are really enjoying that she is awake more during the day, she's really so alert. She seems to love when there is music playing, and rides in the car!

Here are some photos of her meeting all of her family and friends in her first few weeks!
