3 Weeks Old

At 3 weeks, we still haven't seen many changes. She is starting to hold her head up better, but still flops it down after several seconds. We haven't seen any smiles (except for during those bouts of gas). She is staying awake longer during her wake times and is starting to sleep longer at night (about 3.5 hours at a time). It's pretty clear that Ethan and Haley love playing with their sister, and protecting her. The two of them spent a couple days at Granny and Paw-Paw's last week, so Toby and I were able to spend some time doing those things we used to do without hauling three kids around, like getting groceries, and shopping. It's amazing how hard we thought those things were with just one child, and how easy it now seems with just one child. I started my diet last week and hope to get back to the gym within the next week. Some may think it's too soon, but when all you've got to wear is maternity clothes, it can sure be a motivater. Elizabeth goes in for her weigh-in next Monday, but i'm sure they'll find she's gained quite a bit. She'll be a little sumo wrestler before ya know it!
