Photo Shoot

This is just a little preview of the many....many pictures we had taken.

3mths

Time flys by so fast my baby is growing. She now weighs 11.5lbs, has discovered her hands.... working on her feet & is very vocal. She can grasp things, but I don't think she realizes she has them in her little hands... she smiles all the time & is genuinely a happy baby...

We are so lucky!


Happy 3mths Melynn!!

1st ear infection

Well yesterday as I'm running an errand in Franklin, I get a call from Melynn's daycare shes running a fever of 101. She had been coughing alot with a runny nose & constipated this past weekend but hadn't ran a fever yet until Monday.....

I called& made an appt for her, well I took her in & after Dr. Wells got done scraping my daughters ear & took forever to calm her down she determined the fever was caused by an ear infection. She then told me she was going to send it electronically well I now hate technology bc it never showed up at the pharmacy. I had to call back this morning to the office & get them to call it in..... so she's now on amoxicillin.... which is in the penicillin family..... andy & I are allergic to penicillin so I ask the pharmacist what are the odds that she might be.... I got a look like I was an idiot.... I think it's an honest question, Don't You? I was told to just watch for the symptoms, nice...
She's a little fussy & still running a temperature but not too bad.... so I'd say our first run with the sickness is ok.... for now anyway. Not to mention to go 3mths without anything is very good.

Well I know it's been a while!

Melynn is growing so fast! She will be 3mths old on Tuesday & makin new discoveries every day. She has now discovered her hands ( see pics below) & constantly has them in her mouth, I pray that this isn't the beginning of a thumb sucking trend. Fingers crossed!

She also is trying to turn over, usually when she gets angry she trys to swing herself over. It's just a matter of time! She's weighing in at about 10 & 1/2 lbs so as you can see from her pictures.... still a fatty which is just more for us to enjoy. Her sleeping pattern is pretty good she usually goes down between 7&8pm & will stay asleep till about 1230am or so. She has a weird habit of waking up at 3 but usually goes back to sleep with a little help from her pacifier. She loves to sleep on her stomach,but we still have her sleeping on her back at night.

I had my first Mothers Day with Melynn & Andy enjoying every bit of it and received lots of well wishes from everyone! Thank you so much!I've also stopped nursing & we put Melynn on formula. She's been on a mixture for a while & is doing great. I honestly don't think the child cares as long as she's fed. So far we're not having any issues aside from a little constipation.

Melynn is still doing well in daycare & the ladies there take great care of her. She's very good for them, which I hear about all the time. I couldn't be happier.

I will do my best not to wait so long about posts in the future. I will post some 3mth pictures soon!
