Our Two Week Adventure

Well, I cannot believe it. Yesterday Reese celebrated her two week birthday. It has gone so quickly. In honor of her being two weeks, it was time to meet her pediatrician. We've used her with Bailey and love her but knew Reese might be less than thrilled with their first meeting. We were right. She was beyond mad. After the pediatrician, we planned to run a few errands thinking the experience would wear her out. It didn't. Instead, we were able to see just how well her lungs really worked. We tried feeding her in the car and rocking her but nothing worked. We finally just started for home. She finally gave up and cried herself to sleep because we were almost home and she was finally out. Grandma Frances and I took that opportunity to drive through Taco Bell for our "fix".


As for the pediatrician, she was very happy with how well Reese is doing. She is now 9 pounds, 12.8 ounces and still 21 1/2" long. Unfortunately, she also has her first cold thanks to big sister. It doesn't seem to bother her too much but it's hard to hear her cough. The doctor said it should only last about 7 - 10 days but that seems like such a long time in the life of someone who is only 14 days old. At least in all other respects she is healthy. We are so blessed in that regard.


Enjoy the pictures of her two week birthday. We'll write more later!
