Ceci is 3 weeks old!

So I figured since our baby is finally here and we have officially named her it is time to change the title of the blog! So now we are Depintor Family!

Ceci was 3 weeks old yesterday! She is doing great! She loves to eat and sleep and lay on her back and lay on our chests! She has just started to make "baby noises" not just crying! It is super cute! She will sleep anywhere from 45 minutes to 3 hours. I am looking forward to the day when she sleeps past 3 hours, but for now we are all doing great! Unfortunately she doesnt like being locked into her car seat, and I feel so bad for her tiny body being bounced around on these horrible Sao Paulo street, but once she falls asleep everything is ok! We had our first outing to a restaurant today and she slept the entire time we were at the restaurant! I was a little nervous but everything was fine and it was enjoyable for all!

My mom has been here for 1 month already! She has been a huge help, not just physically, with cleaning and laundry and the dishes, but also emotionally. I dont know what I would have done in the first two weeks if i didnt know that she was there to help out!

My father arrives on the 14th and my sister and her family arrive on the 17th! I am very excited for them to meet our daughter! I have a lot planned for us to do, I just hope Ceci, being only 1 month old, will be able to handle it all!

Here are some recent pics!

13 days old!

Our baby girl is 13 days old! She lost her belly button over night, which i am thankful for, because it was really starting to freak me out! Now we dont have to worry about it anymore! She is still a tiny bit yellow so we are putting her out in the morning sun (when there is sun!). Ceci sleeps about 2 and a half hours then wakes up ready to eat, or go poop. She definitely has a poop face... it is the cutest face! She is waking up 3 or 4 times a night for about 45 minutes. I am getting more and more tired but my mom lets me take a much needed nap every once and a while!

I went to my doctor yesterday to have my stitches removed. I didnt feel a thing! I dont know why they use staples in the US, stitches are so much better! I am feeling really good.There is slight pain at the incision and still a little swelling but other than that I am fine! I want to start exercising again, but I think i will wait a few more day as to not push myself too much.
Tomorrow we have a doctors appointment with the pediatrician. This appointment is just to make sure that she has gained the weight back that she lost in the hospital. I am positive that she has gained it back and lots more! She is getting chubby cheeks!

Something I forgot to mention in the last blog update. I asked Leto if he got to cut her cord and he said "No, the doctor said it was too short, and that is probably why she didnt decend or start labor naturally." So there you have it. The reason, probably, why she didnt want to come on her own!

We had a newborn photo session with Leto's sister Sol. Ceci did well but I think it took a little too long and she got super fussy, which makes it difficult to take peaceful looking newborn pics! Below are some of the best ones, we did get a lot of good shots even though she was unhappy for the majority of the time!
