Eloïse 's American passport arrived on Friday, so she's now free to leave the US and travel abroad. Her Dutch passport should also arrive within the next couple of weeks.
Down at Maternal Connections on the same day, Eloïse weighed in at a very respectable 4570 g, although all of the other parents continue to comment on how small she is. I can't explain why their babies are so huge for their age, but Eloïse 's growth is well within the expected and desired range.
