Our First Walk with Kaitlin

Today marks Kaitlin's first week out in the world. Her visit to the doctor's office went well. She'd gained back the 6 oz. and so her mom doesn't have to use the formula every other feeding now. Yipee!

Kerri and Pat are doing well at trying to figure out how to respond to the baby's various signals when she cries. (Is it a bubble?, Is she hungry?, Does she need changed? etc.) It seems they have a good night and then a long one alternately. Tuesday the weather was good in the afternoon and so we all took a walk with the baby in the stroller. It was a nice time together out in the sunshine Kaitlin did just fine. Here are a couple of photos from that walk.

On our way back to PA we stopped in Bedford to try a restaurant we'd seen from the turnpike for years. We had dinner at the Jean Bennet Tavern on Route 30. It was a 200 year old establishment with a restaurant on the ground floor, a tavern on the second floor and a bed and breakfast (American Colonial style) on the third floor. Very Nice. We got home about 9:30 p.m. after a wonderful trip to be with Kerri Pat and now Kaitlin. PTL!
