(Josh's mom) Our families have been so sweet to help us out the past couple weeks. My mom stayed with us for a few days after we got home from the hospital and Josh's mom came from Colorado to help us for about a week. It was so nice to have them help out with meals and to take turns at night with the baby. We love and appreciate them so much...
(My mom after we gave Bentley her first sponge bath.)
My sister Cami was so sweet and stayed one night to help us with the baby.
My sister Melissa has come out to my house a couple times to help with Bentley while I took a nap,cleaned my house and got ready. It was s nice, it's amazing how much longer everything takes with a baby. She says she will babysit whenever I need her to. I hope that doesn't wear off....
We went last week for Bentley's 2 week dr appointment. She gained a pound since we left the hospital and grew an inch. She was 6lbs 13 in when we left and was 7lbs 13 at the Dr's. They said she's in the 30 percentile. I m not exactly sure what that means, they said she's pretty petite, but perfectly healthy. I really hated watching them prick her little foot. It made me sad to see her in pain. I will have a hard time when it's time for shots. She's doing really good, she loves to take baths and she's sleeping pretty good. She usually only wakes up twice in the night to eat. We sure love her!

I bet that was nice to have Mary-Jane there to help you guys. Don't you worry, I don't think I will ever get sick of watching Bentley for you. She's so fun.
It is so nice to have family close so they can help you! I really miss that living out here in OHIO!
The whole percentile chart is weird. Basically 50% is normal if their below they are "below average" and if they are above they are "above average". Does that help? She is so cute though! Shots are always hard... I cry and get chocked up EVERY time Brooke gets shots.
We would love to come see her! email me hay2386@netscape.net and we'll set up a time.
She is so tiny and pretty! It looks like she has long fingers. I bet you have really enjoyed the help from your family. My mom got to stay with me for four weeks and I cried when she had to go home! I can't wait to meet Bentley. I love all of her cute bows and blankets:)
I was going to tell you that Bentley still does not weigh as much as Brooklyn did when she was born. I can only imagine how petite she is:)
It is nice you have family so close to help you. I remember when Collin was born all i wanted to do was hold him and by the end of the day i had hardly done anything. Enjoy it while you can. :D
Bentley is so cute. They grow so fast. I just started a blog
thats great that you have plenty of help! im sure that you really appreciate it. your family just loves your little girl, you can see it in all the pictures! she is darling!
