jovi at two weeks

jovi went to her two week appointment. she weighed 8 pounds 10 ounces, was 20 3/4 inches long and her head was 14.2 inches long. putting her right about at the 50th percentile for all three. she has gained a whole pound since she was born! what a big girl!

she has a love/hate relationship with the binky. funny i say that and in all of these pictures she is sucking away. i guess it's more love than hate.

she has been such a sweet baby. she has a really good temperament, when she talks and coos she has a very feminine voice, and when she cries she sounds like she is heart broken. luckily, she only cries for about an hour a day. she really is so good. we moved her into her own room and she has done great! i think we are all sleeping a little better.

sickies!

so when we brought joves home from the hospital on friday we thought all was well. but dr. hom told us that her billirubin was high and told us to come back in on sunday to get it checked again. it was pretty high so they sent us the billi lights. it was so sad! poor baby had to lay in a tanning bed for about 36 hours. i am so glad that was all because all i wanted to do was snuggle her! i noticed that night that i was getting a heat rash on my boobs. so i called dr. bierer's office the next day and they were sure i had mastitis... so onto more antibiotics for me... boo. at least i realized i had it before it got too bad, because i never ended up with a fever.

then on thanksgiving night hallie came upstairs and told us that a garbage had been knocked over downstairs and there were pills in it and reese had eaten some... holy crap! i was freaking out. we ran to the ER and we were there til about midnight. they pretty much just had to watch him for a few hours to make sure nothing happened. and nothing did thank goodness! but it was scary!

here's our happy family. some cheetos and orange juice and a coloring book was all we had to entertain us for three long hours.
