Snowbunny -post by mommy

I forgot to post that on Thursday Eliana had a doctors appointment to re-check her weight. Of course we were in the middle of a winter blizzard, the kind where you can't see because it's snowing so hard and the wind is so strong and COLD! I bundled Eliana up the best I could and we braved the weather to go see the doctor. Eliana is a very very sleepy baby. So sleepy that we had a hard time waking her up and keeping her awake long enough to eat. While we were still in the hospital she ended up losing weight, going from 8 pounds 8 ounces to 7 pounds 10 ounces in just two days. When we left the hospital she was up 2 ounces and yesterday weighed in at 8 pounds 7 ounces! yay! She's been awake a little bit more every day, but still spends a great deal of time sleeping. She doesn't cry much, actually she doesn't cry at all, only cries when I don't feed her fast enough. She has been eating and wanting to eat which is a great sign that she's doing well. Oh, wait, I'm wrong, she also cries when Evan cries. But that's about it. She does make these funny squeaky noises all day long, kinda seems like she's trying to talk to us already. I told Evan the other night that she was singing him to sleep, and it worked! He feel asleep curled up to his baby sister while she "sang" him to sleep. They are just the cutest.
