2 weeks old!

Well Georgia is now 17 days old and we had our 2-weeks doctor's appointment on Wednesday. All went very well. She weighs 7 lbs. 11 oz. (up 7 oz. from her birth weight) now. We found out she has an immature tear duct, which is not medically bad or anything, but it does mean that she's going to have a goopy, yucky eye for up to 6 months. We just need to clean it with a wet washcloth until it clears up or she hits 6 months and then if it's not gone we'll go to an eye doctor to have it taken care of. Georgia also had a heal prick for blood tests. The nurse took her out of the room to the blood work room and I almost threw up waiting in the exam room for her to get back because I was so worried. Turns out that she slept through the entire thing...crazy little girl with crazy high pain tolerance and crazy hard sleep.

We were lucky enough to have Uncle Noah and Aunt Heidi visit us yesterday and today. All I have to say is...when can you move in, Heidi?

Georgia has now had her first bottle (full of breast milk, no worries my fellow lactaters) and her first pacifier. She's not so sure about the bottle, but that's okay because it's just for once in a while until I go back to work in August. She does however love herself some pacie...but what baby doesn't?

We have plans to make our first road trip to Duncanville/Cedar Hill June 6. So...please keep your eye on this and my facebook for our tentative schedule. We're going to try our best to carve out time for the Reid's, time for the Elder's, and time for our friends. I really hope that everyone who wants to gets to meet my sweet baby girl.

People have asked me lately about my employment status...no DFW job yet, but I do have a slight lead on a kindergarten position in Maypearl, so cross your fingers!

Well, back to enjoying a lazy Saturday with Pat and Georgia!!!

firsts and visitors

We have had a busy first two weeks, here are just a few of the wonderful moments that I've gotten to share with my sweet Georgia Elizabeth.





Aunt Shannon came to visit along with Uncle Andy and Grandma.



Look how tiny Georgia looks next to Andy's hand.



Andy, Shannon, and Georgia.


Uncle Andy with Georgia.


Grandma with Georgia. Katie came to visit too along with Erin and Hope. I think Katie's in love with my little one just as much as I am.


Hope takes Georgia's booster chair for a test drive.

Georgia's first try at the swing...not so into now, but maybe in a week or so.


Georgia in her car seat on the way to her first doctor's appointment last week. We also visited a lactation consultation because she was having trouble latching on. It turned out she was tongue tied, so we went back to the doctor and had it clipped. She didn't even wake up when the doctor did it. Feeding is going much much better now. Georgia napping in the swing that her Popi refurnished for her to match her nursery.


Georgia and Hope...Hope looks huge compared to Georgia.

Pat fixing up Hope in Georgia's swing....he's so good with babies.

Andy and Shannon brought thier baby along too. Chance had fun playing with Maximus.

Erin with Georgia.


I just think this random picture turned out too funny not to share!



Some pictures from Georgia's first walk.






Georgia and Pat surf the net :).

Katie and Daryl came to visit on Sunday.

My baby is a ninja...somehow she did this in her sleep.

Nap time in the Reid house.



Georgia does the funniest things in her sleep, like somehow get her diaper down bellow her little butt.
