Our baby girl is growing up. 5 weeks old and 9.5 pounds. She's starting to fill out some of her cute outfits nicely. We saw a specialist at Seattle Breastfeeding Medicine this week and she diagnosed Willa with a posterior tongue tie which we had clipped. Nursing is so much less painful! I'm hoping this was the root of our troubles and that things will only improve. Cj is diligent in giving Willa facial massages to help relieve the tension in her jaw and lips that built up from trying to compensate for limited range of motion with her little tongue. What a good dad. We have also started very laidback elimination communication, and Willa has peed in the potty a few times this week. Exciting stuff. We look forward to changing fewer diapers in the future.
Willa is rooting for Cathy's "Team Beaver" in her sleep:
The following picture series cracks me up:
And then happy again:
Willa's first hike! We went to Rattlesnake Ledge with Megan and Sadie yesterday:
Mama time after an olive oil massage from papa (which is why she's so shiny):
Mugging in her little yellow sweater from Grandma Klocow:
Love you all.
