Elisabeth Talbot
This photo was taken at about two weeks - she turned four weeks yesterday!
She was three weeks early and "small for gestational age." So at 4 pounds 6 ounces she was the size of a preemie, but as developed and generally as healthy as a regular three week old. She is up to 6 and a half pounds and looks so much different already!
We planned to call her Betsy, but because she is so teensy we've been calling her "Bitsy," instead.
Nicknack was a little clingy for a few days, probably more from my prolonged absence at the hospital (we were there a few days because of my preeclampsia and to make sure Bitsy started to put on weight) than from the presence of his "babyseester." He has really warmed up to her and has shown no signs of sibling rivalry. He loves to give her hugs and kisses, pat her head, and help me by getting things for her.
So now we are a happy little family of four. YAY! More photos soon!
