Update after 3 weeks

Today Ester's been weighed and measured again: 456o grams and 55,5 cm. Growing quickly :)

She's not quite appreciating the "baby gym" yet but it makes a cute picture, right? Time just seems to fly by. We have visitors almost every day, or appointments with the nurse, or going grocery shopping, and all these normal things seem to take so much longer these days... Even though she's the best behaved baby ever, just feeding and putting clothes on, and changing diapers takes so much time. And changing clothes after vomiting, or leaking diapers... and feeding again... :)

But we're at least functioning more or less normally. Have lots of visits, met friends for coffee, played mah jong, and I've even worked a bit (had a lunch meeting with Sabine and Isabella, discussing a project we're working on while enjoying sushi :))

Oh, and we've booked a flight to Vienna! Going to visit Andrea 29th nov-3rd dec, she's celebrating her PhD dissertation. Will be so much fun! I really hope travelling with Ester will be easy and painless :)

Today we've been on our first visit at the health care centre and met "our" nurse, Linda. This first meeting was fairly short, mostly to weigh and measure Ester, and everything seemed fine. As we've suspected she's grown, compared to last weeks 3500 grams she's gained almost half a kilo in one week, and now she weighs 3980 grams. She's also grown in height, and is now a stunning 53,5 cm, 3 more than when she was born! And on wedneysday Linda will make a longer "house call", to make sure that we're all doing ok, to discuss breast feeding etc... I hope she'll approve of our home :)

Oh, and my othe mission today have been creating an online fotoalbum, there's a link in the list to the right, and the adress is: http://fatbat.pixbox.se Enjoy!

Four generations

Yesterday grandma, grandpa and great grandma visited, and everyone agreed that Ester is an exceptionally beautiful and strong child :)

Ester's wardrobe was also updated with some pink outfits, dresses and other girlie stuff. I'll be sure to update you all with pictures once we've tried them out!

Ester Nova Hägglund - she's finally here!

Ester was born 2006-10-02, at 6.28 pm. Weight: 3810 gram. Lenght: 50,5 cm. And of course she's perfect. We got back from the hospital today, they kept us an extra day to monitor my blood pressure, otherwise we would have left yesterday. I'll just quickly post some pictures here so you can all see how beautiful she is... You can always check the swedish blog for more pics as well... I'll write more soon.
