Natalie's 2 Week Appointment

On Friday Natalie and I went to the pediatrician for her two week check-up.  She is a healthy and growing little girl!  

Here are her stats:

Weight: 7lbs, 12 oz (up almost a pound in a week!), 50th percentile

Height: 19", 25th percentile

Head Circumference: 14.5", 90th percentile

As you can see, she's definitely related to her big brother with his big head! :)  If you're curious, here's the post about Nathan's two week appointment: http://fowlefamilyadventures.blogspot.com/2009/01/nathans-2-week-appointment.html

Last week Natalie started to stay awake a little bit longer during the day, and gave us a few longer stretches of sleep at night, which was very welcome! The weather was incredibly beautiful all week, sunny and unseasonably warm, so we spent some time outside every day. Here are some photos from the week:

Noticing, and entranced by, a sweet little butterfly.

On Wednesday my dear friend Maureen and her daughter Gretchen came over to meet Natalie.  

I introduced Natalie to one of my favorite relaxation activities: lounging on a blanket in our beautiful backyard.

Milk coma!

Cruising the neighborhood on an October day warm enough to wear short sleeves and have bare feet!
