It's been a busy few weeks. When Madeleine went to her first doctor's appointment on Monday, June 2, she weighed in at 7 pounds 1 ounce. She was 19 3/4 inches long (she lost an inch after delivery, which is normal due to having a cone head at birth). She was in the 55th percentile for height and head circumference and the 35th percentile for weight. When she went back to the doctor on Monday, June 16, she weighed in at 7 pounds 15 ounces. The doctor says that she should gain approximately 1 ounce per day. So, if you do the math, our daughter is perfect, gaining 14 ounces in 14 days. In addition to being the perfect weight gainer, Madeleine has had a number of firsts this past couple of weeks. She went out to eat three times (okay, her parents ate and she just went along for the ride). She went to the zoo for the first time and she had her first Father's Day.
Here are some pictures from her outings. Here's her first restaurant experience at The Pancake House on Wednesday, June 11.
Here's her first trip to the zoo on Wednesday, June 18. As you can see, Madeleine and the panda both have the same overwhelming reaction to meeting one another: they're both asleep.

Looking to Madeleine's first trip to Junaluska! She will love the strolls around the lake, watching the ducks and playing with her cousins, aunts and uncles and you (Sam and Will) might even enjoy an evening out since we will be there to help babysit! Aunt Ann
