Mirabella's 2nd Week Birthday

Wow, another week has flown by and our little Mirabella is now 2 weeks old!  Not too much has changed from last week, but we do have a few more highlights:
  • Mirabella is now eating between 3 and 4 ounces at a time.  There are times that she will only eat 1.5 to 2 ounces, but she will now eat a few bigger meals throughout the day.
  • Our little baby notices her hands much more now.  This is mainly because she is quite the sucker and wants to suck her thumb (she was sucking on her bottom lip).  However, she usually has her thumb tucked into her fist, so she tries to shove her whole fist in her mouth.  We now have pacifiers in every room!
  • Baby Bella has another nickname, "Angry Baby".  She now has her moments where we can't pacify her and she gets bright red and screams.  We feel really bad that we don't know how to make her feel better, but know that all babies do this.
  • Mirabella had her 2 week check-up.  She is now up to 9 pounds 9 ounces and is a very healthy baby.  Also, her umbilical cord stump fell off.
