Eleanor is doing great! At her two week appt. she weighed 8 lbs. 4 oz. She is a very laid back baby so far and seems to enjoy sleeping and eating (still) most of the time. When she is not eating, she is enjoying her big sister singing to her or just looking around quietly. She usually only cries when she is beyond hungry or needs a diaper change. It is so nice that she gives us some warning before she gets hungry by starting to quietly squirm around so that we can usually get her bottle ready before she gets upset (Caroline used to immediately get so upset the second she felt hungry that this is a nice change of pace!). Caroline is really enjoying her little sister and wants to be close (usually too close) to her all the time. She tends to get regular reminders to give her little sister some space! She is a great help in getting things for Mommy and Daddy to help with "her baby" and won't go to sleep at night without giving her a kiss goodnight. Not only can Caroline sing her own song, "Sweet Caroline" she has now learned the lyrics to "her baby's song", "Eleanor" by The Turtles, too! "Eleanor, gee, I think you're swell. And you really do me well. You're my pride and joy etc."
We'll have to put up some video of her singing both!
