Kasey 2 week update

We took Kasey for her 2 week update on 12/15. She passed with flying colors.

She weighed 8 lb 1 oz when she was born, and weighed 9 lb 2 oz at the 2 week visit. Her weight is 70%. They basically want them to be back to their birth weight (which she well surpassed). She had gotten down to 7 lb 5 oz a couple days after she was born so that's a really good weight gain.

She's also grown 3/4 inch in length to 20 3/4 which is 60 %. Her head has grown from 13 1/2 inches to 14 1/2 inches which is 64%.

Kasey is still sleeping in the swing which they said is ok for the first few months. Basically whatever works. After 2 months we have to worry about spoiling her. She is spitting up, but we're not worried unless she stops gaining weight well or it starts bothering her.

Yesterday 12/15 Kasey seems to start focusing her eyes more for the first time.

I'm doing well. I weighed 8 pounds below my pre-pregnancy weight this morning. Still not fitting in all jeans because everything is still in weird places, but I'm not really wearing maternity clothes either. Hopefully it will start moving back, but who knows.

Not sure if I have mentioned this before, but Landon has a major liking for cookie monster. His diapers have different sesame street characters on them. He always wants diapers with cookie monster on them. He also wants Kasey to wear diapers with cookie monster, and he'll look through all of them to find one.
