Her mouth was purple in this picture because she was being treated for oral thrush.


I weighed Abigail tonight. She now weighs a whopping 3.75 kg (8 lbs 4 ounces) and she is only about 3.5 weeks old - plus she did lose a bit more than 10% of her birth weight in the hospital. Bear in mind she is a 100% breastfed baby right now - although she is getting quite a bit of her breast milk in bottles still so she is able to eat more and faster than breastfeeding directly from me. Basically she has been a little miss piggy since she came home. Anyway, I put her in the outfit I had intended to be her homecoming outfit but it was way too big when we were discharged. Now it fits quite nicely on her. Check out her double chin.

Isaac gets his picture taken too. Isaac had his 2 year actual age check up last Friday. He actually got onto the growth charts for his height and head circumference based on his ACTUAL age this time. Apparently, he grew almost 4 inches in 6 months. No wonder why he is getting into more and more trouble each day (as he is able to reach a lot more things) and his clothes don't fit anymore. However, he is still not on the chart for his weight.
Isaac seems to be adjusting better to Abigail as time goes by. He still isn't saying much at all these days - he is still only really saying "car" and "go" (though he signs a lot more than actually speaking). But once in a while, we can hear him say "Abi" or "Abi - gail".

Thanks for posting more pics of Abi and with her eyes opened! :) Isaac seems to be happier in the pics with Abi. It's funny how Abi seems almos the same size of Isaac in one of the pictures, where Isaac was looking at Abi and even looks like he was trying to carry her.
So nice to see the pictures of Abigail. She is adorable. I can hardly wait for her to smile. She sure is getting chuncky. I love her double chin!
Isaac has a great haircut. He doesn't look like a baby anymore. Glad to hear he is on the height chart and hope the weight catches up soon. Is he still enjoying preschool or would he prefer to stay home with mom and baby sister?
Hope you are all getting lots of rest. Hopefully you don't have to go back to work too sooon.
Take care and thanks for posting the pictures.

Hey Sonia! GREAT to see the pictures of the children. Abigail is even more precious than the first pictures and Isaac looks like he's definitely two! I'm thinking that Abi will look more like you - since Isaac is basically a Jong clone...
Getting ready for our move back to the US of A - - as of this summer we will be card carrying US dwellers. Look out San Francisco.
love, w
My heart is filled with so much love when I see pictures of Abigail and Isaac. It does seem like he's adjusting well. I can't wait to see her (and Isaac) in person. As soon as you can, you'll have to come back to the States and visit.
Love you,
Mary
Can't believe Abi is one month old alread! Time flies.
Hey Sonia- it's Holly-HollyJo from HP--- I miss being online all the time- but I try to get on when I can.
