Pretty amazing how much children change in their first few weeks of life! Taylor's already looking so much different than her hospital pictures! Things in my household are going on as normal. We are trying to adjust to life with three children. It makes getting out of the house and going somewhere a big ordeal! It takes me quite awhile to get everyone dressed, ready, cups, diapers, bottles, and wipes and out the door! Whew it's exhausting just typing all of that! ;-) Taylor is finally starting to gain some much needed weight. At her two week checkup she was only 6lbs. 8 ounces so she hadn't yet gone back up to her birth weight of 6lbs. 10 ounces. The doctor was somewhat concerned and wanted me to work with Taylor on trying to get her to eat more at each feeding and I had to bring Taylor back in to get re weighed. So today I went back in for her weight check and she's up to 6lbs. 14 ounces! So not quite as much as they'd like to see her but they were still happy to see her gaining weight! Her jaundice appears to be resolved and now we're working on getting the infection out of her eye. It turns out her clogged tear duct turned into an infection so I had to get some ointment that goes on her eye each morning and night. Since I've started that ointment in her eye she's seems to be able to focus on things much better! Not much else going on here so enjoy the new pics!

Isn't it amazing how quickly they change. I honestly don't remember what Porgie looked like as a newborn.

The pictures are adorable, as usual!

cute cute cute! Poor little taylor with her eye infection and jaundice and little body. You're a good mommy though so she's safe and sound in good hands! Yay for babies!

Wow, she's still so little, her clothes are so big on her! Good to hear about her weight gain and no more jaundice, that's great! Sorry to hear about her poor little eye though, that's probably not much fun. She's really starting to look like the boys.

That is great that she is starting to gain weight well! She is looking alert now. She is really sweet and her brothers seem to be adjusting and loving her well!! What a sweetie!

She is so adoreable and I sure want to see her in person. She is small but they grow so fast when I see her I'm sure she will be normal weight for a six month old!
