Christmas Time

Wow, Christmas blew by this year. We were busy running around and seeing all of our families. We spent Christmas eve at the Shaffer's in Discover Bay and Justin's mom, dad and step-dad were all there. It was such a great evening and Jordyn got lots of nice gifts. We then spent Christmas day with my family and had a wonderful dinner and again Jordyn got lots of lovely gifts. The best was when her daddy and grandad put together her exersauser and put the seat in wrong so that she disappeared when we put her in it. We also got to go by and see Grandpa Arlan's family for a little while before Christmas dinner. Jordyn hadn't met any of them so it was great for everyone to see her, too bad that she was asleep for most of the time we were there. On Sunday we went over to Granny Goose's house and had a nice brunch. It was topped of by lots more gifts and a little spit up on Granny. It was so special to have Jordyn be surrounded by her amazing family. Her first Christmas was such a hit and I can't wait until next year. I'll try and post pictures in the next few days.
Until next time.........

Christmas Pictures

We were really lucky to have our friend Francis come over and take some pictures of Jordyn for Christmas. She wasn't in the best mood that day but the photo's turned out really cute. He did such a great job and took some great pictures. Here are some of them.

Growing like a weed

I sware that she gets bigger and bigger each time I look at her. I took her in for her appointment with the GI Dr. and it turns out she is allergic to milk protein and so she has to be on a special formula. The newest formula has stopped her stomach pain and the grunting which is great. She weighed in at 12lbs 8oz and is now 23.5 inches long. We are getting ready to go to Disneyland next week with Granny Goose, Arlan and the rest of the family, we will be there for Justin's birthday. Once we get back it will be Christmas which is going to be exciting. Below is a picture of her all bundled up to go onto a walk with Grandma and a picture of her with her Aunty Kay who visits her daily at lunch time.

3 Months Aready!

The past 3 months has flown by, I can't believe how much our life has changed since she has arrived. I am back to work now and Jordyn is now going to my mom's during the day. She absolutely loves her grandma and enjoyes her time there so much. As soon as I arrive in the morning Jordyn looks at her and smiles so big. She pretty much stays up all day and comes home worn out from all the fun she has had during the day. I feel so lucky to have my mom watching her while I am at work. Now that I have my own daughter I have a new found respect for my mom and all that she has done and continues to do for me. Growing up you tend to take your parents for granted but now I realize how much they have done for me and appreciate it more than ever.
She now has her first tooth coming in and she has taken to chewing on her fist. My mom snapped this picture of her chowing down today.
