LaNea is in love with her little sister! She is so gentle with her and is so willing to share with her. I love watching her give her so many kisses and just rubbing her head as she watches a movie.
I love her eyes in this photo!
LaNea saw that I was taking pictures of her so she decided to pose for the picture.
Just an example of how much LaNea loves to be around Zoe.
I know I feel pretty lucky to have such amazing girls. LaNea is just so loving while Zoe is just so easygoing about it. So for now, I just keep praying it will last...forever!
So Eric took Zoelle to her 1 week appointment today with the Dr. She is weighing in at 8lbs 15oz. Gaining weight wonderfully! She is also just over 21 inches.
So let me apologize in advance, LaNea managed to get her finger on the lens before we started taking pictures. Sadly I didn't notice until I got home.
We went to the hospital at 11am on Tuesday. They started Pitocin at 12. I didn't notice the contractions right away but by 2pm I was feeling them. When the dr checked to see how I was going I was still dilated to 2cm and about 50% effaced but the baby was higher up then before. Already feeling the pain I kind of immediately started to lose faith that I'd make it without an epidural. I did manage another couple hours but I ended up with one and it was still wonderful. The epidural had mostly worn off by the time I delivered. It was so painful but it was so fun to know what was actually happening. The recovery should be super easy. I move around just fine and am able to do just about anything. Still cramping and still have back aches but other than that, I'm doing wonderful. Zoe arrived at 9:41pm weighing 8lbs 12.9oz. She was also 21 inches long which is the same as LaNea was. All the drs were amazed by her pink coloring and her "bright eyed" look. LaNea was always very aware of what was going on but unlike LaNea who always tried to focus on everything, Zoe tends to focus on one thing and stare till she's satisfied.
This would be one of the few times she was crying. She wakes up silently, goes to sleep silently, tells me she's hungry quietly and only cries when she's changed. Yes, I feel very lucky!!!
LaNea is in love with her little sister. She kept trying to make Eric go visit us again. She has tried several times to allow us to let her hold Zoe. She loves her so much though and will even leave me to sit next to Eric if he's holding Zoe. :)
