Sorry for delay in posts again. We had a challenging week last week, but things are looking up now!

Harper had her first doctor visit on Tuesday, and she had gotten a little jaundice since leaving the hospital. So, her little heals became pin cushions over the next three days as we had to keep drawing blood and montitor her bilirubin levels (learn more here: http://kidshealth.org/parent/pregnancy_newborn/common/jaundice.html). So Tuesday night we had to put her in a bili-blanket and had a nurse come by Wednesday and Thursday to monitor her and draw more blood. She was able to get off the blanket, which is basically a UV light, on Thursday. She looked kind of futuristic hooked up to it, but was quite a trooper through it all.

Daddy gave her a bath while we had a break from the bili-blanket which was quite an adventure. First she pee'd, changed the water, then poo'd, changed again, and finally got her cleaned up!

She was happy to be all cleaned up!

Here's a sweet picture of her chilling in her swing.

Aunt Hilary came by on Thursday with a sweet delight from Lovejoy's bakery (mmmmmm). She knows how us Ortyl's like cake!

Thursday our little baby girl turned one week old! I can't believe it's been a week already. She already looks different then when we brought her home from the hospital.

Thursday I also started feeling bad and finally after getting uncontrollable cold chills turning into sweats I took my temperature on Friday. Turns out I was running 103 degree fever and had to head to urgent care friday night. Got on some antibiotics (UTI) and eating Tylenol like candy to keep fever down, but finally feeling a little better today (Sunday).

Bathtime with mommy.
