I've adopted!

Olivia Corinne came home on April 17th -- 2 days after her birth. She weighed 5 pounds 14 ounces and was 18 inches long. Though I've had sleepless nights, we are doing great and she is growing every day. We've finally made it to 3 oz every 3 hours -- up from 2 every 2 hours. I'm not sure how to attach a picture. Let me try....

She reminds me very much of our first baby after many years! Be prepared for a lot of people to think she's really a doll---and not real! This mistake happened to us often for the first several months!
Beautiful baby girl!

Sincerely,

Linny
