After finally coming to a solution with the feeding issues, Schuyler is now officially a wailing, eating, peeing and pooing machine weighing in at a whopping 7 lbs 7 ounces and hitting the milestone of sneaking past her birth weight.

the new regimen of breast-in-a-bottle is working much better and we are all a lot happier and saner which is a welcomed change. now we can begin having fun again with her playing games (chess, occasionally Risk or Civilization), reading to her (she is up to date on most of the Time/Newsweek reporting on the Obama/Clinton primary battle as well as some baby friendly articles from the economist) and exercises (the baby sit ups and the occasional push up).

it is still overwhelming to comprehend that she is actually ours - that she is made from us. what a gift.
