Cora had another weight check-up yesterday and I am excited to tell you that she is gaining weight. She has passed her birth weight and now weighs a whopping 5 pounds 7 ounces.
She is spending a little more time awake and we are seeing glimpses of her personality.
One small prayer request is that she has developed a slight cold. The doctor said her lungs sounded good so we are basically just dealing with congestion. Last night she had a hard time sleeping, but she seems to be doing better this morning.
My mom left on Saturday, so we are trying to survive without her. She was a huge help during her four week stay and the kids miss her so much!
Friends from church are bringing meals which has been nice since I am still not feeling 100% although I am feeling much better. The other night we received a lasagna that was as big as Cora, yum!
I’ve slacked off on pictures the past few days, but I hope to start taking more soon.
Hanging out visiting Cora.
Talking to big brother.
Trying to capture a smile.
Too cute. Love that smile! You really have beautiful children.
Your new little girl is amazingly gorgeous, and what a smile!! You and your husband are truly blessed with such a beautiful family.
She’s a beauty!
She is just so adorable. I can’t even imagine having a baby that tiny, my smallest was 8lb 14oz lol. Hopefully her little cold will clear up quickly and not be a problem.
You grow girl!!!!! Keep up the great work baby Cora!
Cute pictures! Glad she is putting on some weight.
Cora’s and her brother’s profiles are exactly the same! Cute!
She is so super duper cute! I’m glad that you have so many loved ones to assist you. You are reaping what you have sown! God Bless you and your family.
Love that smile! Glad to hear Cora is doing so well!
She’s so cute!!! And, that’s a massive lasagna! What a blessing to have her home and healthy! And, so great that your church family is helping with meals too – that is always nice!
Oh my goodness! Too cute!!
She is so precious. Great job capturing the smile. My camera has a delay so I always miss them. Hope you enjoyed your lasagna. I will keep Cora in my prayers.
I love the things you take pictures of next to her – so funny.
Glad to hear that she’s doing well! Hope you get some rest and the transition without your mom goes smoothly – I’m always sad/scared when my mom leaves!
She is a real cutie pie.
Ahhh! Love the pictures. Good job Cora on the weight gain! Hope she feels better soon!
Great job Cora on your weight gain!
What cutie pies! Love the pictures!
She’s so precious! Love that smile!
WOohoo! Glad she is gaining! She is an absolute doll!
Oh that smile! *Melts*
So glad that Cora is gaining! I will keep her cold in my prayers! I love the picture of her big smile…so cute! She is adorable! Rest up so that you can get better soon!
your kids are beautiful! I can’t believe that Lasagna was as big as your new lil one! too funny. Cora looks great, and that lasagna isn’t looking to shabby either, I’m starving! Best wishes.
I thought she looked chubbier…okay, maybe not chubby, but definitely bigger! Yay!
Toni, I am praying that this transition time will be a blessed one for your family. It’s good to see that you have so much support! Cora is a doll

the pic of cora smiling is absolutely precious. it made me smile super big too!!
Cora is absolutely beautiful little girl, so glad to hear she is doing better.
God Bless You and Your Family
Our church brought meals to us for the first week too! It was such a treat…and I actually kind of liked the “element of surprise” – not knowing what meal would arrive each night.
My favorite was chicken and green chili enchiladas. Delicious!
Cora is adorable! I hope she’s feeling better. I have a baby who struggles with congestion regularly, and our ENT recommended (okay, she’s the creator, Dr. Heatley) this nasal spray. I LOVE it! I can tell by the babe’s ease of night-time breathing if we’ve used the nasal spray regularly during the day. Babies can’t breathe easily through their mouths, so clear nasal passages are a must.
