Movin' On Up!

On Thursday we took Abigail down to Bryn Mawr Hospital for her weigh-in.  Since this is done during a breastfeeding / mommies group, I walked in to a room full of women feeding their younglings, some with their tops completely off and baring it all.  The lactation consultant came over to me and I explained that I was ONLY there to weigh my baby, haha.  It's interesting because she said that they at the hospital don't trust the pediatrician scales... and then it seems like our pediatrician was weary of what this "class" was, and how they weigh the babies, who weighs the babies, etc. 

None of that matters in the end though.  Abby weighed 6 lbs. 9.5oz.  She's slowly movin' on up!  We'll probably take her back next Thursday and Terry, the consultant said she should weigh about 5 more oz. by then.  In the meantime, it's feed, feed, feed!

Nana and Pop Pop were down for the day on Thursday as well.  We all went to lunch at Duffy's, then the hospital, and then we went for a ride in the car in the Mainline area, in awe of all the huge houses in the area.  Afterwards, "Nana" helped me sterilize and clean all the baby bottles and other pieces I have for when we start introducing bottle feeding.

On Friday Peter, Abigail and I went for lunch at Wholefoods and enjoyed a nice time on their rooftop deck.  Then we did some shopping at Ikea and in the evening we headed over to Gilbertsville to hang out with Bernie and Nora and see their new house.  Abby was good for the whole time as we went to dinner at a pizza joint, and then back at their house she needed to be fed.  I must say, she is so good in the car and just sleeps the whole time!  She slept the whole ride home and didn't have to wake up until 3:15am when she was hungry.
