Week 2!

At 2 weeks Ellie was already starting to sleep longer at night, one time she went 4 1/2 hours which was a big deal for me =) Ellie loves to wait until she has a freshly changed diaper on to poop, she still wants to eat every two hours but every now and then will go three! She rarely spits up, like not even once a day and has never had an "explosion". She grew quickly out of her Newborn clothes and was wearing 0 to 3 at 2 weeks. Ellie had a never ending umbilical cord, it never fully closed up so when the nasty dried up part fell off finally when she was around 2 weeks, you could see the fresh umbilical cord still there, yes gross! They ended up cauterizing it which luckily did not hurt her at all and thank goodness she didn't need surgery because it healed up a week later! At Ellie's two week check up she was already at 8 pounds and 20 1/2 inches!
