tuesday was claire's first visit to her pediatrician, and there was nothing but good news. like all babies, claire's weight dropped in the hospital but she is quickly regaining. she is back up to 9 pounds .5 ounces from a low of 8 pounds 13 ounces. mom and dad were not surprised. it appears that we have a little piglet on our hands. she eats and eats and eats. doc was impressed with the rapid gain. her head did measure an inch smaller than at birth due to the swelling from being in the canal for so long. all in all - the visit was great except that claire had to be stripped down to a diaper, which she does NOT like. she much prefers the warmth of a tight swaddle. luckily, dad had a blanket handy. i was, of course, able to snap a quick pic to mark the occasion.
I miss my little shoogie boogie toes!
