Sweet Chelsea Kaye

Hayli spent a lot of time snapping pictures today and she got some beautiful ones! Chelsea has a sweet tempermant. We are enjoying getting to know her.






Our midwife, Anne drops by daily to check and make sure all is good. Today she weighed Chelsea. Chelsea has gained 1oz since birth! Just 6 days and growing- I was not surprised at all b/c she gulps down the milk- you can hear her swallowing across the room!

I had 4 stitches after the birth b/c Chelsea had her hand on her face coming out. I am house bound b/c we have aflight of 12 stairs that lead out of our home. No stair climbing until stitches heal. It hasn't bothered me yet. The stitches give me enough discomfort that I'm pretty keen to just hang out inside. Hopefully next week I can get out with mum and Hayli for a fun day trip before they leave.

Ta ta for now.

What a beautiful baby girl, and I love her name.
Give your mom a warm hello for me. We are expecting our 2nd grandchild next week. There is nothing like having grandchildren. In Christian love, Mickie Smith
