Three Weeks Old!


She's growing up so fast already! She now weighs 8lb 6 oz and has grown another inch long and another inch around her head! Unfortunately, she out grew all her cute bows, so we will have to make some adjustments. I can see those cheeks getting chubbier by the day. The older she gets the less I think she looks like either of us in particular, but a profile shot always reminds me of her daddy (at least the lips as seen in pics). We had a bit of a rough week this past week: non stop crying for 5 days. I'm taking an antibiotic for mastitis, which I thought might be up setting her. She tested positive for blood in her stools. One ped doc said he thought it was the meds and to formula feed until I was done. So, that's what I've been doing. She's much happier on the formula. But at my follow up appt I saw another doc and he disagreed with the first saying the meds have nothing to do with it and that my baby is just colicky. So, I am very confused. Just wondering if anyone has had an experience or advice about this situation. I am going to try to go back to breastfeeding tomorrow as my meds will be finished. I am so hoping I do not have a colicky baby. Those 5 days were a nightmare. We'll see how it goes tomorrow...she sure is cute though.

Videos of Ayden

Here are a few videos of Ayden





Comparing Ayden & Daddy

Day 1 & 2

So I was just going to post a few pictures... famous last words right...
She's just too darn cute!

So here's documentation on Day 1 and 2, including skype-ing with Grandma & Grandpa Reilly, putting on her first outfit, and coming home from the hospital.

She's home now and doing well. Logan is recovering nicely and Patrick is calling himself "The Baby Whisperer." Logan's excited for him to "whisper" come 3 or 4 am.

SHE'S HERE!

Yesterday we welcomed AYDEN REILLY to the world! She was born in South Miami Hospital at 5:20 pm. The little dark haired beauty came in at 7 lbs 10 oz and 19.5 inches long. The Reilly clan thinks she looks just like Logan and the Barber clan thinks she looks just like her daddy....so I guess you'll have to make your own opinion. One thing is for certain...she has dark hair like her momma. And it just might end up curly...we'll see. We think she may end up with her daddy's blue eyes, which is quite the Reilly triumph considering what those genes were up against. Again though, we'll see!!

Logan is doing great. All those years of coaching other women through labor really payed off. She was a natural. She pushed for just 40 minutes. We are all grateful for epidurals though!! What a great idea! Patrick has taken to his new role perfectly as well. I don't know how he is so comfortable, but he knows just how to hold and soothe Ayden. He and Logan are going to be fantastic parents!!! They are so excited and so eager to love this darling addition to the family.

Enjoy the pictures...more to come!
