First Week

This is one of the baby's first pictures at home. As you can see she is a little yellow in color. They pulled me in the nursery at the hospital the day we were supposed to go home and told me that she had jaundice. I cried, but the nurse, not the doctor, told me that it would pass. I was really scared, but apparently it happens to a lot of babies. It took her a week or so to get passed it and to gain back some weight (she lost almost a pound). She wore this outfit once because she was already too long. I think Angel Cake was still wearing this until she was at least six months. Just goes to show the difference in size.

This is one of my favorite pictures. You can see Angel Cake in the background and Grandma holding her. The baby still has a lot of hair. It's a little lighter, but she still has hair. We are still trying to grow out Angel Cake's hair. We will have one with and one without. You can't see Grandma, but she looks exactly like her in this picture.
