First Doctor Visit

I am going to have to make this fast because I can hear her stirring in bed. She is such a great sleeper, I am so thankful. We went to the doctor on Wednesday and things look good. She is eating good and growing. I was a little disappointed when they weighed her, because she only gained two ounces from her birth weight, but she has already grown an inch. I do have to remember that she did not come home weighing the same as when she was born. We think she came home as 6.10, and is now at 7.8. the last several days she has been eating like a wild child. I think she is going through a growth spurt, because she is also sleeping in longer streaches.
The Gipson house is about to make the trip to Abilene for the month of August. Jason will be doing a family practice rotation with the Texas Tech clinic there in town. We are looking forward to the many visits in store and getting to spend a lot of time with family. We are going a little early just because we (Maddison and I) want to. My parents are working their tails off, it seems just so we will have a little more room in the house. Thanks mom and dad for all your hard work. I hear her. Sorry no pictures this time.

Hey Chaney,
I just found your blog through Kristen's. Congratulations on the new baby! She's a beauty.
I can't believe your husband is already doing rotations. Doesn't time just fly by?

Jason, Chaney, and Maddie-Jack,
Abilene and Hawley are buzzing in anticipation for your arrival on Thursday! Be safe in your preparations and travel. And have your day planner ready to schedule all the visits you will need to make while you are here...
Delaney and Britlyn have used their fingers to keep count of the days until your arrival and they are now down to one hand! Their facial expressions in the first photos of them holding Maddison will be priceless!
Love you more,
Mom and Dad
