1 week old

1 week old and ready to see my great grandma and papa bigby
Our little family

Savannah is now 1 week old. She has taken over our world! We love being parents! She is a very laid back baby who sleeps a lot. The only problem is she doesn*t want to go to sleep at night. Once asleep, she*s good, but getting there is tough! We have had tons of visitors people making us food. We have enough food so I don*t have to cook for a long time. It*s great. Savannah also had her first photo shoot on Saturday. She did well until she woke up. Her pictures are beautiful! I*m healing great and we are adjusting to our new world. Savannah gained back 4 oz. from the 9 oz. she lost in the hospital, so needless to say, she eats well! Her first doctor*s apt. went well and we are both doing great! At 1 week, Savannah can:

* when startled, arches her back, kicks her legs and flails her arms
* can lift her head when on stomach or at someone*s shoulder

* moves her head from side to side

* her head flops forward and backward when in sitting position

* sleeps between 19 and 20 hours/day

* moves bowls often and sporadically (we have gone through a lot of diapers already)

* feeds 7 to 8 times/day

* makes animal like sounds (snorts like a pig when she*s hungry)

* looks at a person briefly
