First visit to Doc.

Tekla has now been home 5 days. Most nights have been great. There have been a couple of nights where, for whatever reason, she was very restless, which made me restless, but overall she is a great baby. Although we have done our best to prepare our selves for her care at home, it seems we are still learning on our feet. 
Some of the things we've learned, and things we've questioned:
1/ She will tell us when we are not giving her enough in her bottle
2/ You can never have 2 many extra bottles
3/ I hope the dishwasher doesn't quit working
4/ How can such a little girl have so much laundry?
5/ Why does it take 2 grown men to bath one 5 pound baby?
6/ Where are we going to put all of these clothes? She is only 2 months old and she has more clothes than I do. 

Today we went to visit the pediatrician for the first time. Everything went great. Tekla enjoyed her ride in the car and visit, except the vaccination part, but she didn't even put up much of a fuss with 3 shots. 

She is now 19" long and 5 pounds 12 ozs. She returns in 2 weeks for weight check.
