Happy Ivy

I've been trying to load a video of Ivy smiling, but it won't work. She has a big huge smile, and she inherited her dad's dimples. Mostly she smiles at her sister, but sometimes at Mom and Dad, and even a stranger in the waiting room. She's more than nine and half pounds; exactly four and one half times her birthweight. She is on the percentile charts now (third percentile for height and weight) so she's catching up!

I had never heard of late onset colic, but apparently it exists, and my baby has it. She is super fussy for at least a couple of hours every night. The severity varies; some nights it's not too bad and only lasts half an hour, and some nights she screams for two or three. I suppose I was doomed to have a colicky baby, after my own infancy. We are crossing our fingers that she grows out of it soon.
