Yesterday was our first outing in the car as a family...besides coming home from the hospital. We went to the pediatrician for Mady's first appointment. Dr Audakaitis is a really nice guy, and he's really good with kids too, so i'm very glad we picked him. Mady only cried a little bit when she had to get weighed. She is still 20inches long, and she now weighs 7lbs 3.2ounces. The doctor said he expected her to be down more weight, so she is apparently doing very well. Little does he know that Frank and I are champion eaters, so she is bound to be one too. As long as she's still healthy, i'm happy.
Last night was Mady's first night in her own room, in her own crib. I was a little hesitant at first, because she wouldn't be where i could get to her quickly, but it ended up going better than i thought it would. It took her a little bit to fall asleep for the first time. I think it was because she was in a new place and she was a bit scared. I tried to use the mobile that we have, but it only stays on for about 10-15min and then it shuts off automatically, so by the time i had to go in to soothe her later, i decided to leave the table light on for her. She ate before bed, and then she slept for about 4 hours and woke up to eat again, then she slept for another 4 1/2 hours before getting up with a wet diaper. I guess this is what nights with a baby are SUPPOSED to be like, but it's going to take a bit of getting used to.
