Learning to Blog

This is all new to me, but here we go...

Miss Samantha Jayne Whaley joined the family on 7/21/11 at 10:30pm weighing in at 7lbs 1oz and 19 3/4 inches long.

Henry & Georgette (our furry children) are handling the new addition suprisingly well.  They love to smell her and G gives her kisses all the time.  Henry is warming up to the situation, at night he is genuinely irritated at the crying but today he is showing interest when she is crying and seems more concerned than upset which is sweet.  He actually hopped up on a chair to peak in her basinet when I was changing her and she was expressing her frustration towards getting her diaper changed.

Sammie is doing well.  She is a very calm baby, so we are very lucky.  We are still trying to get the whole sleeping at night thing figured out, generally the 1 or 2 am feeding stretches out a lot longer than necessary because Mom isnt quite sure what the little lady wants in order to go back to bed.  Last night we discovered that she prefers the fast flow nipple vs the slow flow nipple to fill her little tummy faster, so here's to hoping that helps Mom get more sleep tonight.
