One Week Down

This is a great shot of Linnea and her daddy.  It is symbolic of our goal this week (achieving simultaneous sleep!) and also a great way to highlight one of Mommy's favorite traits about the two of them - their matching lips!

Linnea has been blessed with a good number of visitors already this week. One of her most faithful fans thus far is her Aunt Aimee, pictured here.  Obviously the admiration is mutual.


On the purely informational front (no pictures), Linnea had a follow-up dr. app't today.  She is gaining weight well (8 lbs 13 oz, although that's with a diaper and having just eaten :)), which is great.  Unfortunately, the dr.'s are detecting a slight heart murmur so she has a follow-up app't with a cardiologist next Friday, but they are hopeful, as are we, that it will be something just to watch and not a source of problems.


Nana and Papa leave tomorrow morning, so pray for us as we take the next step toward "normalcy."  We are so grateful for all of their help this week and are glad that they get to stop in Ann Arbor en route home for a few days to see Cousins Kelsey and Evan (and Aunt Nanci and Uncle Andrew).
