Dottie has been a little dream baby. She is so mellow, her big sisters opposite ;) She is starting to wake more, and is flashing us the sweetest smiles. She loves to stretch out and she looks so long when she does. Already likes to hold her head up. She sleeps pretty good during the night- just wakes every 3-3 1/2 hours to eat. Just like Goldie, doesn't like being swaddled, but likes a soft blankie by her face. She actually likes her binki! That has been a lifesaver! She only gets fussy when she's hungry, gassy, or around 8 pm.
She is petite with petite little features. Dot's got cheeks for days, one of my favorite features. She's got Balding on top, but has hair on the back, it looks a little darker than Goldie was. Her eyes are blue, but sometimes they look like they might turn hazel, or brown. She has Monson long, skinny, legs, and arms (the trait all my siblings have, but me). She makes faces that look like Scott a lot, but still has her own look. Sometimes her face seems familiar from either mine or Goldie's baby pictures. She is seriously just perfect!
At her two week appointment the doctor told us she has a heart murmur, but he assured us it was common for babies, and should go away with time, but they will keep a close eye on it. She also has an umbilical hernia, which should also fix itself once her abdomen develops more.
We love our two sweet girls with all of our hearts. Goldie has been the best big sister. When she wakes up the first thing she wants to do is "hold you" (hold dottie), and always gives soft kisses, and says "Hey sis!" or "Hi Dottie". Just enough to make my mama heart melt.
