Tinsley's first doctor's appointment

We went today for Tinsley's first checkup.  Tinsley is 6 days old today and weighs 7lbs. 10 oz and is 21 1/2 inches long.  We saw Dr. Peck who we absolutely loved!  She was thrilled with Tinsley's weight and said that the main goal is that baby's be back at their birth weight by 2 weeks so we are ahead of the game.  I am thrilled!  Tinsley has been doing well with breastfeeding, but it has been hard because there is no way for me to know how much she is actually getting, only how long she eats.  The doctor told us to keep doing what we are doing and to come back when Tinsley is 2 weeks old for another checkup.  Here is a picture of Tinsley from today after we got back home from the doctor.
