Big Blue Eyes!

I've worked two days now and I hate it. I want to be home to raise my baby girl. Jeremy babysat on Saturday and he called me sometime before noon because he getting frustrated. Half a bottle did the trick to sooth Madelyn back down.
Madelyn is starting to smile occasionally. The baby books say that soon she'll be able to squeal in delight. She's still too young to be interested in any toys.
I've had issues with her diapers leaking pee and poop. Last night I changed her P.J.'s twice because of leaking pee. And her first poop of the day leaked up her back on her third set of P.J.'s.

7 weeks and growing like a weed!

Madelyn has grown so much since she was born! She can wear 3 month clothing and some
3-6 month clothing now. She can hold her head up pretty good, but she still likes to rest it on mama's shoulders. Madelyn has started to coo now too. My favorite way to play with her is to mimic what she says. Any day now she is going to give me a big smile. She'll grin at a light on her changing table. She likes circles, black & white art, windows and the outdoors.
I'm going to be back at work soon.... Saturday to more like it. I'm very stressed about leaving Madelyn at home. I feel like I know Madelyn best and she still needs her mama all day long. We'll just see how it goes and hope for the best when I return to work.

More Halloween Pics

Madelyn and I both haven't been feeling well. I have a sore throat and runny nose. And Madelyn has been congested with occasional sneezes and coughs. I tried called the pediatrician today but couldn't get threw the line. Madelyn also has a rash that could be infant acne, but I really don't know. She had pimples on her face, neck, check and upper arms. It flares up when she is crying, in the sun and in warm water. So hopefully we can make an appointment the her doctor to resolve her cold and rash soon.
