What's Up Doc?

Dear Zellie, 

We had your first doctor's check up the day after we brought you home from the hospital.  You did great.  Since you've pooped a lot already you were way past the tar poopies and into the regular curdled yellow gunk.  A crazy thing to be excited about but...hey, you're growing up already baby girl.  You were so chill and let the doctor do what he needed with little fuss.  Like your big bro Henny (click to see Henry's first appointment pics) I will take a photo of you at each of your first appointments in the baby scale basket.  We've learned already that you like to be held closely, a switch for us as Henny really liked to be held then promptly wanted his space.  You checked out perfect and healthy.  Your birth weight was 6lbs 11oz and you were in the acceptable range for weight loss at 6lbs 3oz.  

Can't wait to see how much you've grown at your two week appointment!  Henry commented just this morning that Boingy Furry is starting to get fatter  (this is what he has taken to call her, I'll address that matter in a later post, just don't know if I am up for it yet.)  I can't wait for ya to start interacting with us more.  You're a spectacular present wrapped in lots of layers of pretty papers we are waiting to get open.  2 weeks off the wait to really start to meet you!  I can't wait!
Love, Mama
