Sophie's 2 week check up!

Today we took Sophie in for her 2 week check up. She did great, except for the PKU, she didn't care for that, but I don't blame her!
Here are her stats:
Weight: 7 lbs 12 oz.  50 %
Length: 19 3/4 in.  55%
Head: 13 3/4  45%

I was surprised when they said she had gained almost a pound since her birth weight! She does like to eat though. And I am glad she gained weight instead of lost it, the twins were always smaller because they had acid reflux and could keep little down. So it's good that she does not have that ( knock on wood) and we are glad that her appointment went great! :)

Sophie is 1 week old!!

I can't believe that a week has gone by already! Sophie has been so much fun and we love her to pieces! We are not getting much sleep yet, but that's to be expected I guess! Lance stayed up with her all night last night and let me sleep which was so nice. She will do pretty good most night, sleeps for 3 hour stretches and then other nights she just wants to be held all night and has a harder time. Hopefully soon she figures it out! :)
Here are just a few pics of her and the kids and stuff during her week at home!

Big Sis and Sophie. Sadie loves to hold her, she only holds her for a few seconds at a time and then is done, but she always says " I want to hold her all by myself" :) Sophie was hungry here and wanted to eat instead of taking pictures!

Announcing our new arrival!

Sophie Marie was born Monday May 16th at 12:25 pm. She was 6 lbs. 14 Oz and 19 1/2 inches! We love her so much. It was a really easy and fast delivery, only 5 hours of labor instead of 12 like the twins! I pretty much slept the hole labor and it was so nice! I am sure Lance was bored out of his mind, but once I got my epidural I was so comfortable! I only had to feel a few uncomfortable contractions and I was glad. I didn't believe my Doctor when he said he would be back around noon to deliver her, I thought for sure I would be going into the night like before, but was so happy at 11:30 am when I was checked and they told me I was at a 10 and they were calling my Doctor to come back and deliver her! :)
And by the time he was done with his appointments and got back to the hospital it was 12:15 and she was born at 12:25, just three pushes and she was born! So easy.
I was surprised that she had hair and that it was so dark. The twins had very little and it was a lot lighter than Sophie's is.
She is just so pretty and we love her already so much. The kids came to see her once I was moved into my room and they just loved her to pieces. They wanted to love her and give her kisses. They have been staying with my parents and are still there tonight as I type this and so it will be fun and interesting to see how things go when they get home tomorrow. But I think they will so just fine!

So here are some pictures of our little princess and some other's of the kids and visitors we had! Enjoy!

Finally at home

They had this cute bow on her when they brought her in the next morning

Her cute hat with bow they glued on

My awesome Doctor, Dr. Twede, I don't like this picture of myself, right after deliver shot, ugh! But I wanted one with him, since I didn't get one with him and the twins since they were taken away so fast after they were born.

Proud, but tired Mommy!

Wow, I can't believe that it's almost time to add our sweet Sophie to our family! We are all super excited and can't wait to meet and hold her. Monday is the day and it can't come soon enough! I will post pics and info once she is here and we are home and settled.
