7 Weeks

Hello, Beautiful! You have grown so much stronger, smarter, and prettier since last week! =D

You're using your hands to touch objects more often now (the right one is dominant...for now, muahahaha) and you are using your eyes to look and see everything you can in your world.

For Christmas you visited your whole family- Grandmama and Cranpa, Aunt Wendy, Aunt Krista and Uncle Richard, Dede and Pawpaw, Aunt Chris and Uncle Keith, even Mimi and Papa Joe. You were one busy girl! And you made out like a BANDIT at Christmas- new toys to help you develop. Yesterday Mommy bought you new pants for the chilly weather that's coming. You're wearing one pair of them in these pictures.

There is also a movie of you that you can see here. You're playing with your seahorse. ^^

Mommy and Daddy are very busy taking care of you, and Daddy needs to go work now, so we'll end with a BIG HUG and kiss.

Love,
Mommy and Daddy

Six Weeks Old!

Yay, Cordy! You are getting so big and pretty. =D

Your smiles come most in the morning, and you are awake and aware more often. You are having your first Hannukah and you're going to have your first Christmas this week. Your whole family is so happy to spend time with you and hold you close. You are loved.

Five Weeks Old

Baby girl, guess what? You're starting to smile more often. They used to say babies only smile because of gas, but now we know it's because something is making them happy. We love your smile.

Tomorrow you will go to the doctor for your one month check-up and we will get to see how long and heavy you've gotten. You're such a big girl! =D

Right now you're fussing in Daddy's arms, making toots and getting your back patted. You're a rootin', tootin', high-falutin' baby, and you're not ashamed to say so.

We love you and can't wait to share Hannukah and Christmas with you for the first time. ^^

Early Christmas

Hello baaaaby!

Your Aunt Wendy bought you the coolest play gym. Instead of taking pictures of you playing in it, Mommy decided to take video. =D



It's so much fun to watch you learn as you play and grow. Keep up the great work! ^^

Love,
Mommy and Daddy

One Month Old!

Hey, you! You with the big blues! You're one month old today. ^^

You have been steadily gaining weight (although the doctor wouldn't see you yesterday because 29 days is not enough for a one month check-up, apparently), and you have been grrroooooowwwwwwwwwwwiiiinnnnng! Newborn clothes are far too tiny for you, and 0-3 month clothes are getting to be too short if there are footies involved.

What are you up to? Besides your amazing physical development (you could roll from your back to your side before you were a week old AND lift your head when on your tummy) you have been working on your eye development. You are spending more time awake and aware, looking at your surroundings. You are beginning to make more sounds, too. You used to only coo coo, which got you your nickname lovey dovey...but now you squeak, squeal, and give little yells. And you fuss/cry, obviously.

You have come a long way in 30 days, and what's even more amazing is how far you will go in the next 47 weeks! You will be standing and starting to talk!

So eat, eat, eat, and sleep so you can grow. We love you!

~Mommy and Daddy
