The second week is wrapping up (man does time fly fast) and little Alex is now 5lbs 11 oz and 19 inches long.  Her 2 week appointment went great and she doesn’t have to go back for 6 weeks (2 month appt).  She’s eating great (9-11 times a day) and obviously growing fast.  She doesn’t fill out her newborn clothes but she fits in them length wise pretty well (if she stretches out her legs which is rare, little miss frog leg).

Today at the doctor she sucked her thumb again!

I have a bunch of new photos I will post tomorrow probably when I get them off the camera (her actual 2 week birthday).

In nursery news, no progress has been made yet but I’m going to go work on the trim now while Ryan snuggles with the little one (he only has today and tomorrow left of his time off).  So I’m going to go sand and prime and caulk the trim where it needs it and later hopefully get a coat of paint on it if Alex lets me.  Ryan did work on the tvroom a bit (installed the baseboard around the room minus the cap molding so far) and got the trim up around the exterior door.  We have a few more rosettes to strip before that can be finished but I’m hoping next weekend we can get that room done enough that we can order our new couch at least.

I just wish we had some nice weather for these last few days with ryan, we could use a nice walk to the park but no, we’re stuck inside out of the rain and even Fitz is bored enough to sleep all day without complaint.
