As I was thinking about what to post next, I realized that although my baby Jaeda has had a rough first months to say the least, she has had equally as many wonderful milestones along the way. Jaeda was brought into this world on June 18th 2009. She was 6 lbs 12 oz. And she came out hungry! Unfortunately they made the poor girl wait a couple hours before she got the first nibble.
Her first check up the next week was, we will say, "normal." Everything about this child from hiccuping to sneezing is "normal." In fact I couldn't get a question in while this doctor would say a laundry list of things that were "normal" for a baby to go through! Needless to say we didn't stay with that doctor! On July 4th we put the munchkin in the stroller and walked down for the parade. She fell asleep half way through and even slept through the fire trucks!
On July 14th we took her to the doctor to have her belly button checked. We are avid golf players, but were worried to see one on our daugther's tummy! That's how big her belly button was protruding. However, no worries!, its NORMAL! Just a herniated belly button that she has since then out grown.
On July 24th she slept for 5 hours in a row! I was in heaven... if only it lasted!
She has attended fun showers, birthday parties, and family outings! She got to go to the pool on August 6th with her 'cousin' Bailey! Loves the water!!! The zoo was also a fun adventure! She was baptized in a beautiful park in August. (That perfect experience is whole other story!)
Since she was 2 months old she wanted to sit up all the time. She just wanted to see the world! She was already standing with help at the start of September and now she stands while hanging onto things!
When she was 3 months she rolled from her tummy to her back once...and it has never happened again!!! She rolled from her back to her tummy at the start of 5 months and rolls all day long!
She has lots of fuzzy hair growing in... we still can't tell what color it is- it depends on the light. :)
She loves giving big sloppy kisses, bath time, and playing with toys! She has the cutest smile and reaches for mommy and daddy. I could stare at her perfect little face all day long!
So there are my random thoughts of the last 6 months. The biggest joys in my life have come from the smallest gift, my baby Jaeda.
