Not much in the way of big news the past few days (which is good), however, Brooklyn is now up to 685 grams! In other words, she has topped the 1-1/2 pound mark! She's a porker! You can really see it in her fingers and toes which are starting to look, dare I say, pudgy.
Also, the past few days we have seen a huge difference in her eyes. Instead of just staring blankly into the distance, Brooklyn has really started focusing her eyes whenever certain sounds are made. Mainly it's when mom is nearby and starts talking. Suddenly, Brooklyn starts opening and closing her eyes as if she's really trying to see mom. So adorable. When we close B's isolette blanket over her (to protect those precious eyes) after a care time is when things get interesting. Brooklyn is already VERY curious about her surroundings, her eyes scanning everything including her hands, tubes, and those crazy giraffes on the isolette blanket. Okay, so she can only really see hazy black-and-white shadows but I like to think she's already an overachiever!
I leave you with a clip of our curious little girl:
