Finley had a doctor's appointment today and has gained 7 ounces putting her at 5lbs 2ozs! You can really tell when looking at her that she is gaining. She has developed some folds of skin on her arms and legs and her cheeks are filling out a little.
She is such a good baby. She pretty much only cries when she is hungry.. a big change from our other daughter.. :)
We are officially flying solo now. My mom left on Wed early morning and I survived a day all by myself. It helps that Joel took Jeiven to school and Lori picked Jeiven up from school so I didn't have to leave. I did go to my mom's group though.. late and all, and it was nice to have some normality back in life. Malea really loves her "Wednesday school" as she calls it, so it was great for her to be back.
We have been blessed with some meals so far, which is very nice. It seems like dinner time is when all the chaos happens, Finley needs to eat, Malea has to pee, Jeiven falls and hurts himself..
Joel's birthday happens to be today.. so we are having family over for dinner. I have a messy house already so I need to get working on that, as well as make a cake, and try to take a nap. Any guesses which one probably won't happen?
Finley is sleeping at the moment but I will post some pictures of her and her rolls later, as well as some Joel birthday pictures.

I'm so glad to hear that Finley is gaining weight and you guys are starting to get into "normal" life again:) I think of you often! Wish I could see you baby girl in person. Lots of love.
Happy Birthday to Joel and awesome weight gain little Finley!!!
Normality is a good thing - enjoy the cake making and maybe the nap will come tomorrow:)
Meggan and Tony too!
I'm guessing you'll miss out on your nap...I'll be in the same shoes soon enough! Maybe I shouldn't be so eager to have the baby just yet and just enjoy the last few days of normalcy....
Hey Pembertons! So glad that you are all able to be a family in your own home finally! sleep will come again someday. :) I pray that God will give you both the energy and stamina that you need to make it through each day. Can't wait to see you all someday and meet little Finley~
Dawn(and Michael)
