3 Month Old!!

Jordyn was three months old a week and a half ago and I can't believe it! She is changing almost every day and is becoming more and more fun. She smiles all the time and squeals when she gets excited. She is eating her hands constantly and anything else she can get in her mouth. She can't sit up by herself yet but she loves to try and is getting very strong. We've moved her to formula now and because of that she's been changing her sleep patterns. She's happier longer and takes fewer naps but for longer intervals which is what I like. We have finally moved her to sleeping in her own room at night and it seems to be going well! The other day Wayne and I were looking at pictures of Jordyn from her first week of life and just can't believe the changes! She's is becoming a wonderful baby, full of personality.We went to the doctors on Monday for a recheck on her ear infection and all is well. She has a little cold and has been coughing a lot but the doctor said that's fine and her ears look great. She is now 25 inches and 16 lbs 1 oz. I just can't believe how heavy she is getting. She moved into her 6-9 mos clothes two weeks ago because she is just way to long! Despite some frusterating moments we had a great Thanksgiving vacation. Jordyn and I left to go home to NY on the Thursday before Thanksgiving with Cassandra. A normal 8 hour trip took 12 hours because of the stops we had to make but it was fun and Jordyn was wonderful. She slept the entire trip. We threw my parents a surprise 25th anniversary party, visited with friends and family and took tons of pictures. Then it was off to PA for a Thanksgiving dinner. We had a great time there playing games, eating tons and making a craft! I was so thrilled for Jordyn to meet everyone I love so much. For those of you that haven't met her we hope to introduce you soon. Thank you for keeping in touch!

Football & Doctors

We have had an eventful last week. On Saturday Jordyn went to her first football game! It was a little chilly but it was a lot of fun. She actually watched a lot of it because she just didn't want to sleep. We went with Uncle Aaron & Uncle Garrett and she had a good time playing with them. And of course, the Liberty Flames won! It was also wonderful to get out of the house and have such an enjoyable time.Also, Jordyn started to act like she was getting sick over the weekend and so on Monday we made a trip to the doctors. We found out that Jordyn now weighs 14 lbs 9 oz (she's getting so chunky!) and on top of that she had an ear infection! It was hard to hear her scream while the doctor checked her ears and difficult to hear that she was sick. We got her started on the medecine right away, which she loves, but she has still had a terrible week. She's been running a fever, pooping through all her clothes and yesterday she cried for about 2.5 hours straight! On top of that she has developed a cold! Please pray that she will get better quickly and that Wayne and I will stay sane through all of this!
