Anna was 2 weeks old yesterday! I figure I am doing pretty good to get an update up just one day late. She is doing great, eating like a pro and starting to get more alert. She has started the evening fussy time, but last night I did get her to use the pacifier for awhile, and that helped. We went to the pediatrician today, and...she weighs 9 lb. 7 oz.! That's in the 90th percentile! Quite different from Miss 35th percentile Big Sister (by the way, if you ask Erin who's the big sister, she will now point to herself). Anna is 21-1/4" long, 3/4" longer than birth, and her head circumference is 14-1/4". Both of those stats are in the 75th percentile. She must take after the Ambrosini side of the family with the big babies!
So, we are doing pretty well here. Our arrangement with me sleeping in Anna's room and Bob taking the other two girls is working out pretty well. Some nights are better than others, but I am getting some sleep every night, even if it is in a few 2-hour intervals! Erin is adjusting to the baby and seems to be tolerating her pretty well. We are seeing fewer tantrums than we had the first week, which is very good. Bella is about the same, except Erin can now climb up on the couch, which alarms Bella greatly. So, we are hanging in there and enjoying our sweet girls!

Are you and bob sleeping in the bed with the babies? That's supposed to help them sleep better, and help you get more sleep when nursing!
