We have just had the homecare nurse arround for Gracyn,s weekly check up. She is pileing on the weight ad is now 3810grmS, 8lb4oz.Her feeds are going well and are now upto 120ml every 4-6hrs.She s in a good routine now and we seem to get some solid sleeps so far. Christine,Brett,Emma,Hannah were up from Dunedin in the weekend so Gracyn was fussed over most of the time.Uncle Brett was a hit with Tegan teaching him how to drive a Hiace van during his stay.Good on ya Brett i better start saving for his first car.
We had our first family outing with a trip up to Auntie Heather, s place in Newlands for Jared,s birthday.Gracyn took it all in her stride sleeping for most of the afternoon and only awaking for her scheduled feed.She sure has found her voice these days as we were running a bit late getting home and boy did Gracyn let us know busting her phew! phew! valve(having a big cry) for the first time and possible not the last.
We sure are enjoying having Gracyn home,i,m also enjoying my time off and bonding with my wee girl.Back to work next week and start a new routine with school drops etc.
more soon
