4mth Appointment

Taylor went to get her 4mth check up and shots on Friday, which is always a dreaded day for any mother. You just hate to see your baby have to experience anything that unpleasant. She was in such a good mood that day too, she had no clue what was in store for her. She was cooing and smiling at her self in the mirror at the pediatricians office. She didn't even cry when they stretched her out to measure her and check her ears like she normally does. She thought everyone was funny and past her 4th month check up with flying colors. We found out that Tay is in the 93% in height for her age, so she's really tall. Then the shot time came, after the 1st shot I could have probably calmed her down relatively easily but after the 2nd she freaked out, so I did my normal hold her close and pat her back till she feels better about life =(. My poor little monkey. We found out that we can start to introduce baby food to like 3 times a week, 1 flavor a week to start getting her used to different flavors so that by the time she is about 6mths old she'll be used to a lot of different flavors and ready to start eating baby food regularly. Well that about all that new. Love y'all!

My First Mother's Day!

My first Mother's Day was kind of serial. It was nice to feel special for a day. For me it was just a day to kind of thank God for Taylor and a reminder of how blessed I am to have her. While being a new mom can have it's rough days I still feel Taylor gives far more to my life then she takes. Taylor gave me the best mothers day present ever, she started laughing out loud last night for the first time. Danny would take her Binky baby (it's this little 1/2 bunny,1/2 blanket toy she absolutely adores) and put it right in her face, make a funny noise and then she would bust out in laughter =)! It was so precious. It's crazy to see how much personality she has at 4ths old. Lately it seems like everyday she is doing something new. Her newest thing is she loves to sit in her bouncer /saucer that has toys surrounding her and try to eat/play with everything she can reach. I love her!
