Arwen, Anya, and I went to get Arwen’s PKU test done today at the doc and have her 1 month check up.
The PKU test checks for genetic conditions relating to metabolism. Her first one came back fine, but they always do two to be on the safe side I guess.
Arwen’s stats are as follows:
Weight: 8lbs 3oz
Height: 21 1/2 inches
Head Circumference: 13 3/4 inches
So, she’s doing well. Growing and eating well. The doc said she sounds and looks great, so she’s a healthy girl, which is all we can ask for.
It was interesting venturing out with both of them by myself, but overall it went great. Not as bad as I had thought by any means. Just takes a little more time organizing everything.
Already getting looks and questions about her name, but we like it and its going to fit her personality great I think, because she’s a strong, sweet, little beauty and for people that know the story and movie The Lord of the Rings, they know that the character Arwen is all these things.
Anya is excited to have her friend Katie come over for a playdate tomorrow and she’s started back at gymnastics which she still loves!
Here’s some new photos for everyone too…

I love the black and white the most. They are all good and you can already see Arwen’s little personality shining through. I’m glad you guys are doing well and I wish you continued success on the nursing. Love ya. Margot
