Here she is a week later wearing a dress I made years ago in hopes of having a little girl to dress up one day.
Things are going well. I'm still a bit sore but that is to be expected given her size! Breastfeeding is good; so much easier the second time round. She's eating well, and sleeping for some decent stretches at night so I can't complain.
DS is very gentle with her and loves to hold her. He's been a bit jealous of the present she's getting, but apart from that he's great. He told my folks after seeing her the first time, "She's pretty eh?" Something to remind him of when he's a bit older and his feelings are less complementary.

I think I've worked this out correctly.
Janine guessed the right day and Shannon guessed the closest weight. So girls - email me an address and I'll post you some cards to use! :-) (
Thank you for your comments on my blog - I'm sorry I've not had time to return the favour but you know how it is! Soon...
