The days following...

Reese is 3 weeks old today! We went to see her pediatrician today for her 3 week check up. She is now 20 1/2 inches long and weighs 7 lbs. 9 1/2 oz! The doctor says that she is growing and gaining weight nicely. I have to admit that she is getting more and more beautiful everyday.

I absolutely love watching her. Even though she's not 'doing' a lot yet, I love to watch her sleep and wonder what she's dreaming about. When she's awake, her eyes are SO big and I wish I could figure out what she is thinking and learning about.

So far, these are a few of her favorite things...

1. Staring at our red bedroom wall
2. Kicking her legs when I'm changing her diaper
3. Reaching her hand up to my face so I can give it kisses
4. Getting "zerberts" from her Daddy

Reese had her first bath on Saturday 9/12/09. She loved being in the water! When it was time to get out and dry off, she cried and cried. She didn't stop crying until she got a fresh diaper and clean pajamas on. We read a book and she zonked out! I know it had to feel good to be cleaned from head to toe. She smelled wonderful...I could smell her from her crib and I think it even helped me sleep better.
