Getting close to a month

Hi everyone!
Someone up there must like us; we had an easy pregnancy followed by an easy labor, easy delivery and now an easy baby!! Of course Annabelle does cry sometimes, but usually it's something easy to fix like a dirty diaper or she's hungry. She's doing pretty well lifting her head when she's lying on her stomach, and she is spending more time awake and looking around every day. She's also growing quite a bit, and was above her birth weight by her two week checkup. (Newborns lose water weight in their first two days, and she lost a bit more than they like to see but as long as they're back at birth weight by two weeks, there's no reason to worry.) David's parents came to visit, so Annabelle has met one set of her grandparents. She seemed to enjoy it pretty well, although she slept through a lot of the visit :). She got to look at a bunch of new faces and had a few adventures; she even went to her first museum! I'll try and post more frequently now that things are settling down, although Grandma and Granddad are on their way in this weekend. I have slowly started to go back to school, so I think we're starting to get a routine down, slowly but surely. Hope everyone is doing well!
