Charlotte is 2 Weeks Old

Charlotte turned 2 weeks old Saturday evening. I can't believe she's been ours for 2 whole weeks! Time flew right by.

She had a doctors appointment on Monday morning. They weighed her.
She was 7 pounds 12 ounces! Milestone! She's over her birth weight! Great news! She is 21.5 inches long. She's 80th percentile in length and 40th in weight. Her head is also 80th percentile. She's long and skinny.

Our pediatrician was running behind that day and Charlotte was getting mighty hungry. We waited for quite awhile and finally after enough crying, I told Andrew to go ask how much longer it might be just in case I had time to feed her. He happened to run right into our doc and he came right in. But Charlotte was past the point of being okay with not eating. She screamed through the entire appointment. We have found out that Charlotte is not a lady who likes to wait. Our doctor said she looks (and sounds) great and has beautiful skin! We agree. We talked a little about our concerns with food allergies/asthma/eczema etc. But really there's nothing we can do or tell at this point but we think things are already in a better place than we were before just from her skin. So that's a plus!
This is Charlotte on her way home from the appointment. Well-fed and about to nod off. Much, much happier. Cute as a button.

Happy two weeks, Miss Charlotte!
