Right now feedings last about an hour (is she a slow eater or is the colestrum just really slow? We're not too sure.) and Cara is working on one as we speak. I took today off (my one day I get) and am having a good time managing the two girls and the dog. Rowdy has sniffed Frances down and seems to understand that he is going to be getting a little less attention now.
I forgot how a well fed baby goes into a milk induced coma...
I got Teresa to hold Frances today solely for photographic evidence that they like each other. Many people seem to enjoy the attitude that Teresa is evidencing in the hospital pic, but that was only caused by Myrna telling Teresa not to cover her eyes so she put her arms down crossed.
Another one? Man!
Teresa really wanted a picture of her & her tower.
Teresa came up and asked to cuddle with me when she saw Frances doing it. This is a welcome change, I no longer have to beg.

Congrats on your new little one She's adorable.
And NO it's not unusual for feeding to take an hour at this stage, it's something that we block out from the first time.
Congrats again
(oh and I'm a friend of Rachel's not just some random blog stalker)
Congrats Ken & Cara & Teresa!
I'm excited to see the new bundle of joy - I would love to eat those cookies Cara! Enjoy the new baby time.

I don't know. That could just be a carefully crafted "I love my sister" shot, and not the real thing. This is blatant emotional manipulation by the media! Horrors!!! :)
So I'm trying to tell from the photos - is Frances' hair a bit lighter/ redder than Teresa's was early-early on? Maybe a bit thinner too? Teresa started with *quite* the dark, full head of baby hair.
