The last several days with Mallory

Well....the last few days have been amazing. Motherhood seems to come so natural to Jennifer. I admit she does all the feeding and diaper changing and most of the burping; but when she gets ready for play time one of these days, I will be there.

Mallory has been such a joy to have around. We catch ourselves just looking at her for hours. She makes the funniest faces when she sleeps. And boy does she sleep. You have to try pretty hard to wake her up.

We have been trying to figure out this jaundice thing. We have been going back to the doctor everyday to see what her level is and it keeps rising. Every time it goes up, they just tell us to come back tomorrow to see what it is. Mallory hates it because they have to take blood everytime. It takes about 1-2 hours for the results to come in. As of today, her level was a 12. It started out at 7. I really have no idea what all this means but I guess if it keeps going up, she will have to have that blue light treatment. Her complexion looks great to us, but we are not doctors.

She also had her first bath yesterday. If you call wetting a wash cloth and wiping her down a bath. I wanted to lather her up into one big soap bubble but Jennifer didnt think that was too funny.
