First Three Weeks

What an amazing three weeks it has been...Kian is growing big and strong. At her two week check-up she weighed in at 9 lbs 12 oz which means she gained 1 lb 3 oz and a whole inch in just two weeks. Kian was also put on some medicine for stomach acid. The doctor thinks her stomach is creating too much acid for her system, so she is on baby Zantac to help out. The stomach problems have been causing Kian to cry a lot and cause her to sleep in only short intervals, keeping Mom and Dad from sleeping as well. With the help of the medicine, she is doing better and getting to sleep for 3 hours at a time, most of the time.

We always knew that Skyla would be a big help with the baby, but we have just discovered that big sister Skyla has a talent for putting the baby to sleep. Anytime she holds Kian and walks around, Kian falls right to sleep.

At three weeks and 1 day, Kian had her first real bath yesterday, and we discovered that she is not a fan of bath time. As you can see from the picture below, she screamed her head off the entire time.

The family is really enjoying getting to know Kian and we will keep everyone posted...
