Three weeks old!

Time is flying by quickly and our little Rachel-bear is already three weeks old! She is doing really well - I'm not sure what she weighs now, but at her doctor's appointment at 10 days old she had already passed her birthweight and weighed just over 10lbs. Plus she's a very fast eater - which is very helpful when there are two other kids around needing things! She's awake and alert quite often during the day, and is doing a pretty good job learning that nighttime is for sleeping (she's up every 2.5-3 hours to eat generally, but she does usually go right back to sleep).

I'm healing up well, and am trying hard to remember to still take it easy even though I feel good. The biggest thing is not being able to pick up Abby (I'm not supposed to carry anything heavier than the baby for about six weeks) - but she's been getting lots of cuddles from Daddy, and we taught her how to climb in and out of her crib with a chair so I can still get her into/out of bed when Greg's not here.

And of course, here are a few recent pictures of Rachel...

Hooray! Some new pictures. She has changed so much already. She definitely looks very alert and so sweet.
