Regan's First Week

We have all been adjusting very well to Regan's first week at home. She's a pretty happy baby, and sleeps most of the day, waking up about every 3 hours or so to eat. So far we have had only one "bad night" where she was fussy and didn't want to sleep, but other than that we have been very lucky. Mom and dad are still trying to get used to the idea of being up at 3 o'clock in the morning, but we are getting used to it. The cats on the other hand, and beat tired by the time morning comes around. They are not used to all this activity at night. They have both been very good with the baby so far, and watch her attentively. This morning she started crying and Pita came running to her side to see what the problem was... I have been calling her "Nanny Pita".

This week Tuesday was Regan's first trip to the Doctors office. She did really well in the car and didn't cry at all the whole time She gained one ounce since leaving the hospital on Friday, and they said she should reach her birthweight again in about two weeks. Everything else checked out really well, and we go back in a few weeks to weigh her again. Also, her umbilical cord stump fell off last night when I went to change her. Now she has the cutest little belly button!
