3 Weeks

I talked to Rebecca the other day, and she mentioned that she has been checking daily to see if I had blogged yet, and to see how I was doing. I apologize for not keeping you more up to date, but most often the answer to the question, "What to do when Samantha is sleeping and I don't have to hold her?" is "Sleep!" And to make matters worse, the last couple days Samantha has not wanted to sleep in her bassinet. Grr! She will fall asleep while I hold her, and about 5 minutes after I put her down in the bassinet, she is awake again. So I have spent a lot of time holding Samantha the past few days.

I took Samantha in for her 2 week check up last week, and she is doing well. She was 8 lbs 7 oz (which is 7 ounces more than her birth weight!) and 20 3/4 inches long.

We also gave Samantha a bath last week. She really seemed to enjoy being in the water. Ian didn't understand why I needed to bring the camera into the bathroom for the bath. This is why:
I think you will agree that it was necessary to bring it with me. :) And I apologize for not having more pictures up, but blogspot doesn't seem to want me to post them. I have tried twice to download 4 pictures, and this is the only one that got through.
