Third Week

Yay!!! We finally got to meet little Maya Hughes!! Congrats Erica and Jim. Another beautiful little girl in the family. Born Thursday, April 9th, 2009, weighing 7lbs 13 oz, and 21" long.. already bigger than Aleenah. She is definetly a cutie and her teeth are quite the little miracle. It will be great to watch these two grow up, exactly three weeks apart.

Other than that this week has been quite uneventful.. We had another photo shoot, with Aleenah's purple hippo, and we noticed that her little red mark on her head is getting bigger (almost by the day). It started off as a small red mark when she was born, and it has now grown to the size of a nickel... and it is starting to pop out more. The doctor called it a "Strawberry mark", and I guess they are quite common. It is supposed to grow for the first 6months to a year, and then it will start to dissapear. She also has one on her ankle, at least they don't hurt her.

Aleenah was babysat this week, by her Grand-maman and Popo. She slept a nice 7 hour stretch for them, and I got to catch up on some much needed rest. After moving, and being up most night, I was definetly starting to look a little worn down.

Let's see what next week brings with our little bundle of joy!! :)
