Catherine's 1st Month


Well, Catherine is now 3+ weeks old. She has brought so much joy to our house, and has fit right in! Caroline has become her 2nd mama, and constantly wants to help feed her, hold her, and she constantly lets us know that Catherine is crying, that she needs a pacifer, etc! We are still home on leave, and are loving taking in everything that a newborn is! She even sleeps, which is even better. She goes for about 4 hour stretches as night, which means we are able to sleep as well, which makes for a much happier mom and dad! She is now able to hold her head up for small periods at a time, and as of Monday 11/26 she weighed 8 lbs 7 ozs, and was 21 1/4 inches long. Dr. reported that she was just perfect, and we have to agree! She is much more alert now, and stays up more and more and is most certainly taking in the world around her!

She is here!! Catherine Leigh entered the world on November 7th at 1:00 PM. She was 7lbs 11ozs and 20 inches long. She is perfect in every way and is also a wonderful sleeper which mom and dad have appreciated quite a bit! She has won over both Cole and Caroline and they adore her. She has fit right in with our little family and we couldn't be more content and happy.
