One week ago today, Zoe was born. She seems to have adjusted to life in West Philly fairly well. Her pink blanket is one of her favorites to snuggle up with; however, we did learn that much like her father, she hates to bathe.
So her first appointment with the peditrician was Wednesday at 11:00am. She seemed to enjoy her ride in the car again, and by that I mean she was passed out the whole way there. The doctor said she was looking good. The jaundice that she had in the hospital is no longer a concern now that she's eating and going to the bathroom regularly. Also, she's working her way back up to her birth weight. After being born at 8lbs 8ozs, she dropped down to 7lbs 13ozs when she was discharged from the hospital. At her appointment she weighed in at 8lbs 3ozs.
Later in the day while I was out shopping for essentials (and comic books) Zoe was getting fussy with her mother. We're not entirely sure what the issue was, but we did find out that she loves her swing. She also had her first story time outside of the womb.
And that brings us to this morning. We had a home visit with a nurse from Pennsylvania Hospital to check on Cheryl and Zoe, making sure they're both all right. Cheryl is doing great, although the nurse did tell her she's doing to much and needs to take it easy. Zoe is up another ounce today, but before we found that out she had a diaper bursting poop. In taking he from the bedroom to the changing table, her diaper leaked all over me. Once she was all cleaned up, she joined me and the cat in bed for another nap.
As always, there are other pictures available in Zoe's Collection.

She has been surprisingly well behaved. For now Dan should feel at ease :)
