yucky

I HATE WINTER!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just had to get that out. It is way too cold for my liking. We were in a little fender bender today. Some dude slid through a stop sign and dented our poor car:( None of us were hurt though, Thank God. Jayda was asleep in her car seat and didn't even wake up through the whole ordeal. Steve and I are pretty sad about the car. The front passenger fender is a bit smushed and cracked. The other guy was pretty good and accepted responsibily for it so he's going to pay to fix it. But it's just the whole idea that our new car is damaged that sucks!!

So on with some good stuff. Jayda's pediatrition appt. went really good. She weighs 16lbs 3oz and she is just over 27inches long. The Doc said she looked great (of course) and she said that Jayda seems to be advancing well (um duhhh...) LOL. I figured all was well with her and I was right. I am so thankful to have a happy, healthy well adjusted little baby.

Other new news....I finally found a mom and tots meet-up group!!! We went to our first meet-up today and it was TOTALLY fun!! It was a rhyme and sing group and about 8 people/babies showed up. Jayda seemed to really enjoy herself 'cause she smile and babbled the whole time and it was really nice for me to get out and about. I can't wait to go to more meet-ups and get to know some of the moms and their kids.

That's all for now folks.....hungry baby awaits:)

Time for a change

I decided that our blog page was getting old therefor I made some changes. I'm getting better at this whole computer tech stuff so I'm beginning to experiment a bit more. I hope this doesn't result in any loss of data but we will see.

So on with an update. We've been really busy lately due to the fact that Steve now works Mondays and Tuesdays in Edson tattooing with Jeff at Edson Ink. Along with that he still works Wednesday thru Sunday keeping our own tattoo shop going strong. I've been keeping myself occupied with doing house work for Mom and Dad while I'm in Edson, keeping our own house in order and of course spending time with Jayda. This past week Jayda's personality has really began to progress. Her sounds turned into grunts and now the grunts have turned into sounds that are more like babbling. She makes lots of different shapes with her lips and moves her tongue more. It is quite cute. She "talks" so much, so loud that her face gets beet red from lack of oxygen. She can also roll from her tummy to her back and vice versa, eat cookies all by herself, hold her own bottle, sip from a sippy cup - when she feels like it and find her soother during the night/naps and put it back in her mouth by herself. She also shares lots of different foods with Steve and I now such as yogurt, K-D, soup and candy/chocolate. Its kinda funny 'cause Steve and I can't eat ANYTHING without Jayda wanting to try some even if she has just eaten. Her progress is pretty exciting for us. Each day there is something new to be proud of her for and of course love her for more and more and more and more........and some more!!

And that's enough for now......Stay tuned, Jayda has a pediatritian appointment on Friday. I can't to find out how long she is "my little spagetti noodle".
