Ruby is fat

OH I almost forgot... Ruby went to the doctor the other day for her eye issue. She has a blocked tear duct and reflux. Both do not require treatment at the moment though. The funny thing though is that she weighs


get ready


9lbs 6oz!!!!

Chubby monkey!! LMAO
Ruby girl is 3 weeks old. I can't believe it. Time is going so fast and so slow at the same time. I am not sure how that is possible but it is happening. I am trying to decide when to go back to work. The thought of it is exciting and horrifying at the same time. I am so nervous about leaving poor hubby alone with FOUR girls.. I know he can do it... but at times I wonder if I could do it. We will have to set some money aside for him to just run away with from time to time. I forsee long rest breaks in his future.

Ava still LOVES Ruby and calls her baby-o. She gets concerned when Ruby cries and today I found her kissing her hands when I returned from getting a washcloth off the counter. She is not to be trusted but I think she really is in love with this little person we brought home. No signs of jealousy yet so I must be doing a pretty good job letting her know that she still has a place in the house... either that or they are just used to me bringing home new people LOL.

Scariest thing ever

There is a little boy on Ava's birth board who had a normal barfing flu that progressed into strokes and possible brain damage...

It really gets to me how in one moment... your entire life could change. I don't think we are ever safe from that possibility once we have children. I feel like a piece of me is forever walking around vulnerable. I am guessing that the feeling doesn't change as they age. I would imagine it gets worse. Someday the PW women and I will be lamenting drivers licence difficulties and boyfriends/girlfriends. It really is a sobering thought. Anything can happen ... at any time.

Andy, get better little man.

NO more bawawle

NO more bottles...

Ava is officially weaned off the bottle now. This is the weird thing... she takes a binky to bed and is perfectly happy with that solution. She has never had a binky in her whole life...

OH well... at least it's better for her teeth LOL. (bad mom... bad)

LAST BOTTLE
