Sorry this has taken so long to post. Sandra is doing great and we are starting to find a routine. I'm amazed at how much a young baby will tie everyone down the first week of life. Ever since Megan's milk came in Sandra has been eating for forty to fifty minutes at least every two hours (sometimes she doesn't seem to stop). This is great from the perspective that she has started to regain weight and is approaching her birth weight. But it does leave Megan feeling isolated and somewhat stuck if I don't sit
We've had a few visitors drop by to see Sandra which has been fun. Two of our friends Zack and Emily dropped by yesterday and gave Sandra a snuggle sheep, which plays white noise sounds like rain, heart beats, or ocean waves. This really does seem to calm Sandra and she fell asleep at 10:00 last night until 1:30 am. Unfortunatelly for Megan, after that she wanted to eat every hour, but we are very excited to see her growing.
