Vi Update

We went back to the doctor and Vi has regained the weight she lost to bring her back to her birth weight of 5 pounds 12 ounces. We are thankful for that and hope to continue with the fast weight gain.

She is so much fun. She loves to look around and has learned to keep a gaze on something for several seconds. She seems to recognize my voice and is learning her Daddy's voice as well.

Nights are going okay. Some nights she sleeps too long and I have to wake her up to feed her and then other nights I am rocking her until the next feeding. We are working on tiring her out before the final feeding hoping to get at least one nice patch of sleep in the evening.

My Mom and Dad got a rocking chair for the nursery on Monday. It was a wonderful surprise and it fits just perfect in the room. The room is tight the the chair is medium sized, just right for me and the room. Thank you so much. It has already come in handy through this week.

First bath with the bath seat was the other day. She is getting used to it. She is so tiny in the seat.

Well, enough jibber jabber. I will post some new pictures. :)

Figuring out if she likes it or not...

Week with Poppa

My Dad arrived on Saturday and this week has been filled with baby holding and tickling. Dad found a little place on Violet's neck that seems to get a little smile half the time he tries.

You can tell he wasn't enjoying holding her...


It has been a great week with him here.

(Sorry, I don't know how to turn it around. Anyone know how?)

Today is Daniel's birthday!

He is all of 29 today. I am so thankful for him. Thank you Mom and Dad for raising him and loving him like you have. I thank the Lord for bringing him into my life. May the Lord bless him with many more years!

He had yesterday off of work/school and we went up to some outlets to search for a watch. He has a sporty watch with all the gadgets and timers on it but no "dressy" watch so we planned on that being the birthday gift this year. We found a great one and of course a good price. I think he is happy with it.

Thank you for the sweet cards and well wishes. He is probably reading them through out the day.


Happy Birthday Sweet Husband and Baby Daddy!
