Maci's First Dr Appt

I wasn't planning on posting this often but Maci is having so many fun firsts that we want to be sure to document for us and to share with all our friends and family! :)  We hope you enjoy all the pics as much as we do!

Last night before we all began attempting bed time at midnight HA HA we gave Maci her first bath at home.  I think like many families we decided our kitchen sink is the best option for the time being vs a full bath tub etc.  Maci doesn't care for the bath itself too much but she sure loves her hooded towels (Thanks Rachelle) and she is in love with having her thick hair washed - just like mommy!  Daddy and I were exhausted by bath time (poor Clint picked up a cold in the hospital too) but nothing makes us happier than enjoying these first with our cutie!

Today we had another first with Maci's first Dr apt.  We went into our Southlake Pediatric location to meet with the nurse practitioner who is also a lactation consultant for a standard post hospital/birth follow up.  Both Clint and I were very happy with how well we worked together to dress ourselves and Maci, pack the diaper bag for the first time and get her in the car seat all while making it to the apt with 5 mins to spare :) WAHOO At the appointment, Clint took the lead on changing the lil lady down to her birthday suit and she proceeded to pee all over the scale and Clint but decided not to stop once she was on the exam table and continued to pee there as well :)  It was quite a fun story.  She was so alert, cute and non argumentative with the whole visit that Mommy/Daddy took some extra time taking silly pictures afterward *ENJOY*  The best news is that she is oz up from her hospital discharge weight, now 5 lbs 11oz and the jaundice is totally gone.  The nurse said she was so healthy and just looked amazing - YAY!!!

Love,
C, K & M
