Squashy Newborn
We've been settling in here at home over the past couple of weeks. On Friday, Feb 19, Lola had her 1-week check up. She weighed in at 7 lbs 15 oz, three ounces over her birth weight and way up from her minimum of 7 lbs 4 oz at the hospital. She is a good eater, sleeper and pooper - what else can you ask from a newborn! Her umbilical cord fell off after about a week and a half, but her little belly button (or booby bellon, as Nina calls it) is still healing.
Now in her third week of life, Lola is starting to have a few longer awake periods. Maybe a couple of 45 min periods during the day, then she is ready to hit the sack again. If you hold her upright, she'll try to hold up her head for a few seconds before it flops over again. Her skin is so soft, and she is so irresistibly snuggly!
Nina, not surprisingly, is very keen to get in on the baby action.

Juana Run?
On Saturday, February 20, Nina competed in her first road race! The Juana Run is held each year just blocks away from our house at Juana Briones Elementary school. Mirko competed in the 8k race while Nina went for it in the pre-K girls 200 yard dash.

Homecoming
I'll never forget the look on Nina's face when she came through the door. Mirko, Lola and I had come home from the hospital about an hour before. Nina had spent the day with Mirjana and her family, and they all came over to drop Nina off. Nina rushed in very excited, her eyes darting back and forth between my belly and Mirko holding little Lola. "Is she out?!" Nina asked.
Nina seems to be adjusting nicely to the new addition and taking her big sister role seriously.....
