Okay, I finally made it back here.

Thanks to everyone for their prayers! Her name is Carrie Noel Parente. She weighed 9 lbs. 4 oz. at birth. Today she's down to 8 lbs. 2 oz. so we could use a few prayers on her wt. gain. She was tongue-tied intially (like my last 3 also) but her frenulum was clipped at the hospital and now we're having to play catch-up on the learning curve for her nursing.

I hated to have her heel pricked today for the bili test but they didn't have the temporal scanner at the pediatrician's office. Her bili level is fine, however, so now to just get her wt. back up. I got my staples out today, too. Too many doctors appts. today!

I've got some good pictures of her up that I took on my camera phone:
Carrie's newborn week

OH and I have high-speed now... so I won't whine about my dial up service keeping me from the boards anymore.


Love,
JoAnna
