Brenna is 2 weeks old! What?! She is now back up to her birth weight, 7lbs 8oz. We have gone on a couple of walks to the park now that it's slowly starting to cool off, although we still don't last too long. I don't want her to get over heated.
We had a visit from Connie and Brenda, two of Grandma Sundee's sisters. They live here in Arizona about 20 minutes away. They brought cookies as well as a cute little outfit for Brenna and two little gifts for the other kids. A little monster car for Garrett and a little Cinderella figurine for Kimbri.
At Brenna's two week check up the doctor ordered a jaundice test just to make sure Brenna was in the clear. Both Kimbri and Garrett had to be on the bilibed because their bilirubin levels were too high. Brenna left the hospital with pretty good numbers and had really good coloring for the first week or so but then she was looking a little orange with a tiny bit of yellow in the whites of her eyes so I asked about it at the well-child check up. We had to go to the lab and get her little foot pricked and they tested her. It turned out to be fine but I'm glad we checked just for peace of mind. But she does look kind of orange in some of these pictures.

Our whole family took a walk to the park one evening and I ended up taking Brenna home early because it was pretty warm outside. I didn't want her to get too hot so Rick stayed with Kimbri and Garrett at the park. They came home soaking wet and Rick said that they really wanted to run through the sprinklers at the park so he let them :) They had a blast doing so!
