That said, in the wake of a great checkup yesterday afternoon Ada Ruth remains our healthy little delight. Her crying is infrequent and almost invariably caused by one of us (she doesn't like the changing table, or changing positions, or any type of change apparently). Fortunately her life is relatively uncomplicated. She is fed and changed every three hours and sleeps the rest of the time. For the time being we have been 'napping' with her between us on the bed. It's a comfort to be able to reach over to feel her at any time. I confess that I'm doing so several times an hour, hopefully to the detriment of my sleep alone.
As you might imagine, Kimberly is quite cheerful and undeterred by Ada Ruth's breastfeeding antics. The dogs are also doing well, I think. Tycho's interest comes and goes, but when it's there he licks Ada's feet and ears ever so gently. Ella is far more intent, particularly when Ada cries or has the hiccups. In the case of the former, Ada sounds a bit like Cartman when he whines to his mom (South Park reference, sorry). In the case of the latter Ada sounds a lot like a broken squeaky toy. In either case, Ella is absolutely determined to find out what is making that noise.
