Six Weeks

Anneke turned six weeks on Sunday and today we had her six week appointment with the midwife (her last appointment with them).  So here's the update of our growing girl:
At birth:  She weighed 7lbs 12oz (went down to 7lbs 3oz in week one), her head was 35 cm around and her length was 53 cm.
At six weeks:  She weighs 11lbs 4oz, her head is 37 cm, and her length is 62 cm (which the midwife checked twice because she didn't think it was right!  But she's growing out of clothes like crazy, so I wasn't surprised!)
She's had her hearing and eyesight tested and everything is good!
The midwife said that she's very healthy and very calm (she doesn't see her in the evenings!), so everything is great!  We are so thankful that she's growing well and that everything is as it should be!  We're still waiting for the smiles, but we think they'll be starting soon because she looks like she wants to!
