Claire week 2 snapshots
Tuesday, May 31 - one week old today
taken while video chatting with Lindsey
Wednesday, June 1 - nap time
asleep in her pack 'n play
Claire had to go to the doctor to have her weight checked. She weighed 5 lbs 12 oz, up 2 oz from the weekend.
Thursday, June 2 - found her tongue!
This was the first day Claire really stayed awake for an extended time between feedings. She was content to just look around and make faces at me.
Friday, June 3 - first tub bath
Claire's umbilical cord fell off on Wednesday, so we were finally allowed to give her a real bath. She didn't mind until we took her out of the water.
Sabbath, June 4 - asleep in her bouncy seat
This is one of the outfits we have bought since Claire was born. She's too small still for a lot of newborn outfits, but does well in onesies so this little romper works well. She still could definitely fill it out a little better!
Monday, June 6 - celebrating Canada
My mom sent this sleeper with moose and pine trees on it. She said we had to take a picture of Claire wearing it with a Canadian flag. Ryan couldn't be prouder.

Claire's first week
After about three hours in the labor & delivery room, Claire and I were moved upstairs to a postpartum room. She was taken to the nursery for her first bath. Ryan and his parents were able to be there to take pictures and video. She spent a few hours in the nursery the first night while we tried to sleep a little.
We spent Wednesday visiting with our parents until they had to go home. Other visitors stopped by throughout the day too.
Claire was discharged from the hospital a few hours before I was on Thursday and we finally got to leave together. I didn't want to leave until I got my free massage. =) I was glad that even though she's tiny, her carseat fit her well. She slept all the way home. We were home by about 3:00p, so not even 48 hours after she was born.
We didn't get to rest much in the first couple days home. Claire had jaundice and had to see the pediatrician on Friday and again Sabbath to check her bilirubin. Luckily, the level did not go up over the two days so she didn't have to be checked again. Her weight got down to 5 lb. 10 oz. over the weekend.
Sunday was our first day home all day with her. On Monday, we got out the stroller and took Claire for her first walk - to visit Connie & Phil in the girls' dorm. Before we knew, it, she was a week old!
