7 weeks: Smile, darn ya, smile!
Well, we just had Ailsa's 6-week follow-up today (and mine too!) - she's 22 inches long and 9 lbs 10 oz... just a little bigger than her big brother was at this age.
I'm back down to my pre-preggers weight and almost shape (but with less muscle) (and 2 more inches to go on my waist) - I have no idea how I pulled that off. Must be the no sleep/no time to eat or even drink water diet.
The sleeping (ha ha! What is this "sleep" of which you speak? She's averaging 2.5 hours between wakes at night) is still a struggle, as is coping with the screaming, but each day we're getting a little bit more quiet alert/happy time.
Speaking of happy, perhaps you should watch this one with the sound off...
I'm holding up "ok" at best, especially the days when Vaughn is cranky too, but I just keep telling myself that this will get better. Sometimes I repeat that into my pillow, sometimes into a glass of wine...
Good thing she's cute.

Another great shot of my two little stinkers angels.
Ok, who gave my son a gun???

One Month Later: What a Family!
Ok, it's time to get out your Mortimer* and follow along at home!
- weighing in at 26 lbs (whoa!), he's just under the 50th percentile; and
- heighting in at 32 inches, he's between the 50th and 75th!
