Two Weeks Old

Beej & Chris

TWO WEEK'S














When Kaylee was born she weighed 7 lbs 5 ounces and was 21 inches long. The pediatrician wanted to see her again two days after we went home from the hospital- which made her 5 days old. She weighed in at 7 lbs 7 ounces!

THEN at her two week appointment she weighed 8 lbs 2 ounces (50% percentile for her age), stayed at 21 inches long (which is 75 % percentile for her age), oh and her head circumference was 14 3/4 inches which is in the 50% percentile for her age. YAY! She is eating well and gaining weight. Now if we could just get her to sleep better...... :)
Things have definitely changed in the TENNEY home.


You frequently will see me doing this...........




Kaylee has some really good nights and then some really bad nights. She likes to fall asleep when she is eating and sometimes I fall asleep with her (which isn't very helpful. he he). So with her falling asleep; feeding usually takes at least an hour. We tried feeding her with only her diaper on, changing her diaper in the middle of the feeding, and rubbing her feet and talking to her..and sometimes it works but sometimes she is totally out and so I let her go to sleep. THEN an hour later she decides to wake up and eat. :) Oh well, we will get into a routine eventually.



Laundry day is no longer weekly......


The week BJ was home he would get up and burp Kaylee and then change her in the middle of the night. Well one night BJ came running in to get the camera. LOL She totally squirted him! BJ is such a good sport. He never complains and offers to change Kaylee whenever she needs a diaper change. Even though he has been pee'd on and now pooped on.



It has definitely been an adjustment having a newborn join our family but BJ and I have really enjoyed it. We LOVE watching Kaylee wake up from her naps. She stretches and makes the cutest faces. Whenever we bathe Kaylee she cries until someone holds her hand and then she calms right down. She likes to feel the security that someone is there with her. Oh and she honestly has the STRONGEST muscles. She already holds her head up. Whenever I am burping her on my shoulder she holds her head up and will just look at me as if she is saying "hey, what are you doing mom?" It is soo cute.





















Thanks to all that brought us food and came to visit. We have really appreciated the family and friend support! I can't believe how much Kaylee has already changed! She is getting so big so fast. You can tell just by comparing the pictures at the top of this post to the pictures here at the bottom. BJ and I both love our Kaylee so much and are very grateful to have her.

It's so cute how she is already developing a personality, it looks like she is trying to smile, hopefully on purpose! She is growing up way fast, enjoy! Oh PS-I got a job this weeks, just thought you would want to know!
