So we have been home for almost a week now and we are figuring out what works. Most of our spare time is still spent just staring at Maeve and telling her how much we love her. She doesn't mind, she is a very mellow baby!

We had our first playdate today with Jess and Lillian. It was so fun, they both breast fed, then pooped, then laid on the activity mat and danced around. Lillian had just measured in at 7 lb 7 oz and looks so much larger than Maeve!!

After our play date, we went home and met Gene, the apiarist (beekeeper). We were all decked out in bee attire that day because I feel the need to dress her in at least 3 different outfits a day and take Maeve's picture constantly. Sorry Maeve, it will calm down.

Maeve and I had a visit at the birthing center today. It was great to finally bring a baby in with me when I went in. We got great reviews at the birthing center. Maeve was weighing in at 6 lbs, 15ozs, 7 ozs more than her birthweight!! Breastfed babies are given 2 weeks to get back up to their birthweight. Clearly, Maeve is an overachiever!!
Afterward, we stopped at the hospital to drop off some paperwork and say "Hi!" to Kersten. It was nice to be out and about and see Kersten!!

Happy Birthday to Finn Murphy and Gillian Penrose!!!
Maeve and I finally had a great night!! feedings were every 2-3 hours and she didn't fuss much at all. We slept in until 8:30 and then ate. We hung out in the bouncer and watched Baby Beethoven until company started to arrive.

How fun to be out and about with little Maeve. She's such a good baby. Glad to see all the photos of Maeve each day. I know you said the photo taking will calm down but I can't help myself! She's so precious! Tell little Maeve that Nan loves her!
