We're parents

Still very weird to hear someone say we're a "mom" and a "dad". We don't really like calling each other that, still feels foreign. But daughter, we love that word. We love that she's ours and a part of our family.

She has been such a great baby so far. Sleeps in 3 hour stretches at night, we're getting the hang of this breastfeeding thing. We were a little concerned about a goopy eye and some other things so we went back to the pediatrician, she's fine, but they told us she's now above her birthweight at only a week old! She's trying to hold her head up on her own. Had a rough night recently where she seems to be fending off gas, hoping she's better this morning.

She love music, when a record ends she'll fuss until someone flips it over or puts on a new one. We've been listening to all kinds of things, she seems to like it all. She also likes to be lifted up and down like she's on a constant elevator, our arms are paying for that one. And lastly, she is already trying to lift her own head up for periods of time. She likes to be upright so she can look around and appears very observant.
