Doctor's Appointment and Visitors

Miss Avery has had a pretty busy week. On Tuesday we had a doctor's appointment. These are some pictures before we left.Her check-up went well. Before they weighed her, they told me they like for them to be back up to their birth weight by the 2 week check-up. When they put her on the scale she was 8 pounds 3 ounces! She is almost a pound heavier than her birth weight (7#5oz)The nurse said "Well I guess breastfeeding is going well." She is now 21 inches long (20.5 inches at birth). This was her face while we were waiting for the doctor to come in a see her. She does not look very happy.The doctor came in and checked her out. She said she couldn't hear the heart murmur any more, but we are still going to see the cardiologist for a follow up in a few weeks. She also noted that her jaundice is just about gone. Everything else looked good. Avery did pretty good, and only fussed when she was uncovered. After her appointment we went to visit daddy at work.Josh loved that, he got to show off his baby girl to all of his classmates.
Wednesday and Thursday we hung around the house. These are some pictures that I took this week. I think she looks a little like her cousin Julian in this picture...her cheeks are filling out a lot.Baby Hand...
She's got me wrapped around her little finger.

Big baby feet...you can see the poke mark from the heel stick they did at her doctor's visit. :(
Baby butt, I love the little ruffle on these pants.
And the front view, she sleeps so much better on her stomach after she eats, don't call CPS on me!
I laid her down right by Izzy yesterday, Izzy laid with her till she started moving. Hopefully she will grow to love her little sister.
Thursday evening my sister and niece came to visit! They are in for the weekend and Avery has been playing musical arms since they got here.Today we literally sat around all day watching TV and passing her from person to person. Here she is smiling at her cousin Lydia.
This is after her bath, she is conked out!

Tomorrow we are boiling some crawfish! It is the first time we are having it this season, I am so excited! Josh's brother Drew, Meredith and Caiden are coming over tomorrow on their way home to Luling. We are excited to spend some time with them and for them to meet the baby. My cousin Jason is also planning on coming over for some crawfish and to hang out with Leslie and the baby. I will try to take lots of pictures of that to post later.
