1 week and 2 days old

From babycenter.com

How your baby's growing:


Your baby's
eyesight is still pretty fuzzy. Babies are born nearsighted and can see things best when they're about 8 to 15 inches away, so she can see your face clearly only when you're holding her close.

Don't worry if your baby doesn't look you right in the eye from the start: Newborns tend to look at your eyebrows, your hairline, or your moving mouth. As she gets to know you in the first month, she'll become more interested in having eye-to-eye exchanges. Studies show that newborns prefer human faces to all other patterns or colors. (Objects that are bright, moving, high-contrast, or black-and-white are next in line.)

I can't believe how different she looks in 1 week!

-How old? 1 week 2 days
-How big is baby? 6lbs 10oz at birth, 6lbs 5.5oz at first check up (up 1 oz from the initial weight loss)
-Sleep? Sleeping quite a bit during the day but eats a lot at night...
-Best moment this week? Lots of visitors and many meals being brought over.
-Belly button? Fell off on day 5; not sure where it went though....Ziggy?!
-What I miss? I thought I would miss feeling her move inside me, but having her here is so much better!
-What I am looking forward to? Nothing, every day is a gift. I am cherishing everyday with Caden.
-Weekly wisdom? None. Thankfully no one is pouring their opinions down our throats- yet.
