Growing Girl, 1/25

I've reached some significant milestones in my short little life! I weigh a very hefty 4 pounds now!!! Mommy says my face and fingers are where you can see the most noticeable change in my weight gain. With the extra padding, my ability to regulate my temperature is all set to go. I'm only staying in the isolette to keep the noise out...there's always something beeping in the nursery, so I'll take staying in the isolette if it means I can get more peaceful sleep. Dad gave me a bath a couple of days ago, and I'm very disappointed that I didn't get a foot massage like I did during one of my previous baths. So Dad, next time I'll Take a double long foot massage to make up for this one! Hehe. One of Mommy's work buddies made me a fabulous little froggy hat and booties. It'll get me in the right frame of mind for when I'm ready to hop on home to be with Mom and Dad all day and night. Ribbit, ribbit! Mom and Dad are still very devoted kangaroos...I get two visits from them every day. Now that Mom is back to work, the two of them alternate snuggling with me. Mommy has also been faithfully pumping milk for me every two or three hours and is on her way to filling up the freezer with her yummy milk. I just can't eat fast enough I guess! With some luck though, I'll soon begin to give breastfeeding a try and Mommy will get a break from being a prisoner of the pump. I've been rooting around but haven't quite gotten then hang of things. Being the big snoozer that I am, sleeping still takes up most of my day and I'm quite content with it being that way! Until next time.
