4 Weeks Old!

Lydia is 4 weeks old today! I can't believe it! While it's hard to remember what life was like before her...it does not seem like she should be a month old already! She continues to grow and change daily! She is eating more and waking herself up most of the time to eat. It's been so much fun to watch her change. She is very vocal now! She has all these cute little sounds that she makes. You should hear her when she eats! WoW! I don't think we will be able to feed her if she is in "big church" with us!

She loves sleeping on Daddy

We went to the doctor on Wednesday and she is up to 6 pounds! Not sure where she is putting the weight though...maybe in her little cheeks! She is still in preemie clothes, and they are still huge on her. I thought she might be able to fit in some of her newborn clothes...but they fall right off of her. Guess she will have to wait a little bit longer to wear them. Dr. Stanford said she does not even look like a preemie anymore. He said she will probably be on the monitor until mid-June. Thankfully we have not had any scares with her breathing or heart rate. He told us to wait a few more weeks before taking her "out"...we are looking forward to being able to get out. We've gone out a few times, but mostly we stay in the car while Daddy runs into the store. Don't want to risk her getting sick and being put back in the hospital.

Bath time is getting a little better each time. Granna suggested that we put the heater in the bathroom and get it really warm and also put some water in the bottom of her tub to see if that would help. Luckily it did! Makes us not dread giving her a bath so bad! :)

We are taking our first road trip to see Granna this weekend! We are looking forward to it! Hopefully she will do well! She is looking forward to meeting more of the family! :) We'll post pictures from our trip soon!
