Itty Bitty Angel

Yep, she's an angel for sure. She even has her own halo - see how her hair has rubbed off in the middle of her head? It is a distinctive ring that continues around to the other side and I've affectionately dubbed it as her halo.

But truly, she is a sweet little angel. Despite having been tongue-tied and having severe reflux issues she isn't one to complain and rarely cries. Instead she blesses us with her sweet nature, infectious smile and irresistible dimples.

We took her in for another weight check on Thursday and she was 10 pounds 5.4 ounces...an 8 ounce gain over 6 days! Hooray! So nearly 175 ounces later, I've been given the go ahead to quit pumping and nurse exclusively. We will have another weight check next week and as long as Baby Sister continues gaining at a minimum rate of .75 ounces per day we will be home free.
