Charlotte - Week 3

Things are slowly getting back to "normal" around here. We took our first trip to the beach with Charlotte on the weekend and she loved it! She pretty much slept the whole time, well until Ruby put a whole handful of sand in her face. She's going to be a tough cookie, that's for sure.

Charlotte had her 2nd doctor's appointment and in 11 days she gained 1 whole pound and grew 1 inch! The doctor said she looks great. Her umbilical cord is off and we've moved up from newborn sized diapers to size 1!

Charlotte continues to be a great baby but is getting a little bit more fussy than she used to be, which is pretty typical once babies hit 3 weeks or so. She really realizing that she likes to be held. :)

Ruby is doing much, much better and having the 2 of them on my own for a whole day is manageable now whereas this time last week, the thought of it brought me to tears. The novelty of having a new baby in the house is wearing off a bit and Ruby's now starting to play by herself with her old toys again a little bit. The weather here has been incredible this past week. Cool in the mornings and evenings with low humidity - perfect for getting outside to play.

We are SUPER excited for Gamma to come visit!!!! Only 2 more sleeps!
