June 7, 2008 - 3 Nights Later

We just finished night 3 with Evia at home. Baby Girl LOVES to be held. She is most alert at night and is a snuggle bug. I love holding her and have a month of lost baby cuddling to make up for. We are experiencing new parent sleep deprivation which is not fun.

Evia had her first pediatrician visit Friday morning. She is doing great. Up to 5 lb 9 oz and 19.5 in long. She is actually on the length chart for 1 month old babies (5th percentile) but not on the chart for weight. Her doctor says that's expected for a preemie. Here's a picture from her first doctor visit.

Daddy bought Evia a pretty pink papasan. I was amused that he purchased what was probably the most girly one in the store. He says it appeared to be the most well constructed.

I am semi-close to apologizing to Meredith for all the years of mocking all the pictures she takes. They say you turn into your mother as you get older, but I had a baby and turned into my sister. There are over 300 pictures of Evia on my digital camera and I always have it close by. Evia will have the Price photo head touch down before too long.
