Swings and so forth..

So far we have had a great week in the Farley household! Addie is doing well, and growing every single day. She weighed in at 6 lbs 11 oz at her 2 week checkup on Monday. That is a full pound heavier than her birthweight! The most surprising part of her weight gain was that I weighed her 3 days before (on Friday) and she was 6 lbs 5 oz. Holy moly, we couldn't believe that she gained 6 oz in 3 days. The average baby gains 4 oz a week, so she is definitely an overachiever at this point. It's amazing the things that excite you when you become a parent. We also bought Addie a swing with the gift card that my Aunt Daphne and Uncle Doug sent for Addie. We thought she might enjoy a swing since she LOVES riding in the stroller and the car. Well, it turns out that we were right! Addie loves to swing, but she will only allow us to keep the swing on the highest setting. She is such a little whipper-snapper!
