Happy 7-Week Birthday, Becca!

This photo is from a couple hours ago. Holding Becca is Jennifer, her day nurse today.

Becca’s weight today is a whopping 2230 grams — that’s 4 lb 14.6 oz! She’s not getting the suck-swallow-breath thing too well, but she’s still negative 5 weeks old, so we’ll give her a break.

Amy’s working on another post to follow this one shortly.

  1. LOOK at those cheeks….Oh my she almost has an adoreable double chin!!! She’s going to be at the five pound mark so soon!!!! Maybe she’ll be your guys’ Valentine’s present. 😉 Tell your nurse we all love her too for taking care of our family!

  2. I can’t believe how “grown up” she is looking. Her nurse looks really nice; I’m thankful she has such good medical care. Love you guys and am praying!

  3. She is looking “chunky”–yay!!! I used to say that about Owen when he was that age and everyone else thought he was tiny at 6 lbs when we brought him home. The feeding takes some patience. Owen struggles every now and then, but I promise it gets better. She’s such a strong little girl and will amaze you 🙂

  4. She looks GREAT–and she’s filling out so much!!
    Glad all is well.
    I stopped by the Music Library last Thursday, and Mrs. Eby and I had good old times chatting about you and all the other gals in our team. Seemed so long ago . . . but those were good days–’02-’03 . . . my first year as a music librarian. I remember feeling so happy to have those three “mother hens” back there–Mrs. Gray, Mrs. Eby, and Mrs. Taylor. And dear Dr. Wilson on a sporadic basis. It was one of my true homes on campus. Everyone was so kind to me. . . . And I remember your merry, joyful, exuberance that cheered all of us as a fellow librarian and year older.

    Love ya, Amy!! Glad you’re doing well, and life is coming back together. I had no doubts that you and your little kiddo would come out on top with a smile!! 🙂
