7 1/2 Pounds already! Newborn outfits here I come!!

Lily Berman Week 4

Hi everyone,

It's been quite the week.  My folks and I had a good time getting the hang of this "life at home" thing.  I'm definitely still sleeping most of the day, but I'm working on fixing my day/night reversal.  Be patient with me - I'm not even four weeks old yet!  I'm still up every couple of hours or so during the night.  Sometimes I eat and go right back to bed, but as my great-grandmother put it, sometimes I like to party.  So I'll hang out or have mom or dad hold me for an hour or so before I hit the sack again.  They've mentioned something about being tired, but I think this arrangement is absolutely fantastic!

I've had some fun firsts this week:

I got "Snot Sucked" for the first time. For all of you new or expectant parents out there, you really can't beat the Nosefrida Snot Sucker -- the entertainment value alone makes it worth the price!  And don't worry - it may sound like I'm crying, but it's just that I don't have the words to describe how amazed I am by the amount of snot that's collected in my head already.

There was some "official" tummy time yesterday (this is actually me on my back after I got tired of tummy time)...

And today (Sunday) I wore a newborn outfit that actually fit me!  That's because I weighed in at 7 pounds, 7 ounces this afternoon!

Here are some more pictures from this week (link to the album if the slideshow doesn't work).



Have a wonderful week.  And happy birthday, Uncle Patrick!!

Love,
Lily

P.S. I didn't want to have to Rick Roll you, but my uncle said he was too disturbed by the actual Snot Sucking video.
