I Can't Go On, Sayin the Same Thing, Cause Baby Can't You See, We've Got Everything Going On and On and On.....

Sincere apologies for the lack of updates! It's really Monday, but this is what was Friday. Capital M's blood pressure hasn't gone down to the proper "regular" rate, and she has been on a cocktail of medications to help try to reduce her BP.
Baby Brooklyn is doing fine! She lost a bit of weight down to 4 pounds even, but we were told that it's normal that babies lose weight before they start gaining weight. It's because they are so full of fluids, that their bodies are adjusting to life outside of the womb. As long as they don't lose 10% of their original birth weight, they are ok. We got a bit of a scare there because she's so tiny, and a preemie!
We had a bunch of visitors today, Mich and Church, and Liz and her boys came for a visit which helped cheer up Capital M, and helped introduce Brooklyn to her extended support network of followers!

Before you get to what you really want to see, DID YOU KNOW THAT THERE'S A SELF SERVE TIMMY'S AT UNIVERSITY AND DUNDAS??

It's only self serve in the mornings, but STILL! Why didn't somebody told me?? SOOOO much fun pouring your OWN Timmy's and not having someone who doesn't speak English screw up your order every morning!

Baby BK (new nickname) is starting to get really comfy with clothes on.

Not a good sign for Daddy who has to work his retail connections.

Brooklyn tried to see if she'll fit into Daddy's Fitted New Era Caps yet:

NOPE! She's still got a little ways to grow!!

This is what Brooklyn thinks of the Papa-Razzi!

"Okay Daddy, TOO many pictures already!"

We DID get to go to our first Breast Feeding class today! Brooklyn is already SO smart, she passed the course before it even got started! She came out right away with a perfect latch and perfect suckling reflex! That's MY GIRL!!

One piece of Irony about today: This was supposed to be our Hospital Tour of the Labor and Recovery Ward as well as the Post-Partum Ward! OOOPS, we have a head start, crash course on that already!!
