Can't believe that time has flown by so quickly!
We don't have any pictures to put up this time around - sorry! Our digital camera decided to die on us last week, so we have a new one on order that should be here next week. She hasn't changed much, so no biggie.
Today, we went to a Doctor's appointment for Michelle to check her stiches from the C-section she had two weeks ago. All is well! The nurse said that Michelle has healed quicker than most women do at this point - so that was great news. She also lost almost 35-pounds, which is awesome too! She's able to drive now and only has 4-weeks left before she can lift over 20-pounds.
At 2:15pm, we took Kalia to her 2-week check up with the Doctor. She now weighs 8lbs 9oz, is 20 1/2 inches long. Both are well-within the normal range for a two-week old. She also had her heart, lungs, ears and nose checked and the Doctor said they were perfect! He was happy to see that her weight has increased like it has. He told us that we should continue to feed her regularly during the day - but if at night, she wants to sleep 5-6-7-8 hours straight without feeding, that it would be okay. I'm sure it won't happen, but it was good to hear :)
Everything is great! We're still working on some burping/gas problems that she's having, but we found some medicine that has made a big difference. We'll take that problem over other ones any day!
In the last week, Kalia made her first church visit (slept through the Worship songs...not sure how...Daddy was playing his guitar as loud as possible), her 2nd Target shopping adventure, went to see her Great-Grandma and Grandpa, and a few other trips. She has her moments in the car, but overall is a little champ when it comes time to travel. We're going to take her to a Festival in Mill Creek this weekend, so we'll see how that goes. We'll take pictures and post them next week.
As usual, we'll keep everyone posted! Give us a call or shoot an email if you want to know more that I wasn't able to post on here.

Congratulations on your beautiful baby girl. She looks so cute! Sounds like the both of you are doing great as parents! I know it's hard not to worry about your baby, especially since she is so small and fragile, but try not to worry so much.I am sure that Kalia will grow healthy and happy...with your love, God's love and your family and friends' love surrounding your new family!! Can't wait to see her!
Love, Jo, Dennis, Jaden and Kyla Gundayao
Thank you so much for posting to this! It is wonderful to hear such good, "normal", reports! And it is good to also KNOW that you will both survive and continue to do well.
It's good to hear all is well...that last post about the ER visit was very scary, my heart dropped as I was reading it. I really really want to come see her again but I can't this week because I'm sick. :( No sick people around the baby! I'll give you all a call next week and maybe we can plan something. Love to all!
