We made it through the fourth trimester!

Our little Willa is growing very well, she is 12 pounds 4 ounces now, which is good weight gain.  She is still sleeping through the night consistently, and we have started transitioning her from sleeping in her swaddle to sleeping with her arms out.  We are hoping that after she makes this transition we will be able to get her to sleep in her crib at night (although I know I will miss having her right next to me in the cosleeper!).  She is still a great eater and is still willing to cuddle with any babysitter we have used.

The one little bump in the road is that it looks like she may have a milk sensitivity, which means that I get to go dairy free for the next two weeks.  Bummer that this falls over Easter, so I will just have to dream of Cadbury Cream Eggs, but it's worth it if that's what Willa needs.  Ever the trooper, the sensitivity doesn't make her fussy or sleep any less, just a change in her diapers (TMI, sorry!)

So overall we continue to be blessed with the most wonderful baby ever made!

Making friends

Willa had a very exciting morning yesterday.

I finally made it out of the house to a post-pregnancy yoga class with one of the teachers that taught my prenatal yoga class.  They have two wonderful volunteers that come to hold and attend to the babies so that we can get our bodies back to normal working order.  It's truly a wonderful program and I'm so thankful to be able to get moving and stretching again!  Willa did very well in her carrier for a few minutes, but the best part was when she made a new baby friend, a little boy name Wilbur.  I knew Wilbur's mom in the prenatal class, and we got to be pretty good friends after bumping into each other all the time in a crazy series of coincidences, then deciding to be more purposeful about it and getting coffee/lunch a couple of times.  Wilbur is only 9 days older than Willa, so they are both in the chatty stage, with hilarious results.  We will definitely have to get these kids together for a play date :-).

Witness the cuteness! (Please note, I can't figure out how to turn the video, and Willa is the baby on the right)
