One Month!

Ella Ann is keeping us busy. She does have her days and nights pretty straight (with a few exceptions here and there) but she is still up 2 or 3 times each night to eat and it takes about an hour each time to get her back down. Not bad though for only 1 month old (it could be much worse!).

At her 2 week check up she weighed 6 pounds, 13 ounces and was still just 19 inches. She continues to sleep in her boppy at night but is up a little more during the day so we are starting to get to see her personality come out. We are pretty sure she's going to be a lot more laid back like her daddy.

She finally had an ultrasound of her hips on the 30th and we got the report this Wednesday that both hips look good so she will not need a harness or surgery or anything. We were so excited! The ortho specialist just recommended that we keep double diapering her as a precautionary measure for 3 months and then he’ll see her again for a follow up just to be sure everything is fine.
