Tuesday was full of fun and excitement for Miss Lily.  We went to WalMart and boy was it an adventure.  Took 25 minutes to prepare her, her carseat, and her diaper bag for the trip.   She enjoyed the cart ride until she got restless in her carseat and that's when Grandma decided she needed to be carried and snuggled until we finished shopping.  We got a nursing pillow and I love it.  Makes breast feeding that much easier.  Couldn't find any reasonably priced baby socks that would fit her tiny little legs.  This girl's got some feet on her, but her legs are so skinny her socks just fall right off.  All in all it was a good trip and she is the most perfect baby.

I've always been on the giving side of compliments when it comes to babies.  I've never been the Mommy receiving them, and let me tell you... I have never felt so much pride and joy and, of course, I couldn't agree with them any more.  She is absolutely gorgeous and completely amazing to me in a new way every time I look at her.  I had spent the past 9 months bonding with her, reading to her, talking to her, and feeling her every move but it really was an instantaneous change the moment I held her in my arms.  The all new feeling of completely unconditional love and adoration washed over me in a way I can't even begin to describe.  

For today we've got her first doctor's appointment.  Gotta check up on her jaundice level and see if she's gained back the 4 ounces she lost while we were in the hospital.  Jaundice levels were basically normal in the hospital and no real concern.  The doctor only suggested frequent feeding and a little exposure to indirect sunlight to ensure it goes away.  This afternoon we're going to go see the Lifeline Pregnancy Center ladies so that they can see Lily for the first time.  More to come later today! :)
