Brief Update

Our lil' kiddz are doing great!! Camden is adjusting to having a baby sister like any great big brother would. He is constantly offering his help, even when not needed. He is just a sweetie! Merci, too is adjusting wonderfully. Our nights are still a bit shaky, but we get through somehow still getting about 5-6 hours of sleep (total). I am so happy that breastfeeding is going great! Merci has done so well and I give her all the credit for it going as well as it is. She is waking on her own, both day and night, every 2-3 on the nose. She eats so well it still amazes me.

We did take Merci in on Friday for a "well-baby checkup" with Dr. Ucchino, our family doctor. Her weight is 6 pds. 14 oz. and her length, of course, was the same. The Dr. does want to see her again this week just to do another weight check. I believe it's because she's not back up to her birth weight yet. He also said she is jaundice but wasn't concerned about it. He told us as long as she was eating well and having both messy and wet diapers, it would run it's course. I think she looks better each day and her color is much more clear. I think she will be above and maybe a little beyond her birth weight by the next appointment.

So there is our brief update for now. I am sure we will have lot more to tell at a later time. Until then, so long from our clan to yours.
