It's been a while!

Since I wrote my last blog, there are sooo many new things I'm learning, thankfully my baby sleeps through the night or more!

Well here is the update~ and new pix!

I came back to work on May 12th because my husband was laid off.. :( but he is back working. I wasn't supposed to come back until de 19th, but oh well.

She is almost 4 now and she is currently teething! She is getting soo big.. and heavy.

MY SQUEAKIE BABY

She is Very Animated

Leaving my heart at home

Today was the day that I had to leave my baby with my mom...
It was perfectly fine until I got on the freeway... Oh man.. I left my heart there, I started doing some psychology on me..."Everything is fine, everybody does it, it's fine..............It's perfectly fine if i cry my heart out!
Hardest thing for me to do... EVER

The business of being born

I finally go to see this movie.. i was supposed to watch it on the day of the baby shower but I was sooo busy with everything. I had put it on my list for netflix but it was available to watch instantly so I did...
and yes I LOVED IT!
Update in a bit... gotta feed the baby!

1st month

Picture Day!

Of course everybody thinks their baby is cute...
I, of course think mine is the most beautiful baby i have ever seen
Here are some delightful pictures



oh and her jaundice went down! we are off the hook!

Breastfeeding

So it's her fourth day with us.. and I'm extremely tired...
Today is Valentine's day and I have baby blues...
I saw Jovan leaving this morning and I had to bite my lip to stop my tears from coming out...
I was depressed...and tired
I had been up all night trying to feed her and she would just cry if she was away from my boob! As I'm trying to feed she just starts crying and then I start crying with her.. telling her... "we don't know how to do this.. and we are both learning HELP ME OUT!"
Was she not getting her food? what was going on...
I had her first appointment this day and her jaundice level was still high.. she had to get another sample of blood drawn out the following day, but her weight was good... Yay!
I guess for me breastfeeding her was, and still is really important...
First because i would show people that it's hard but it can be achieved... I've read that everybody is capable of doing it, and only 1 to 5 percent of women do not produce enough milk for their babies, That's nothing! and that is very rare of a baby not knowing how to latch on.. it's the mom's fault... and it's often because they don't know how to do it properly or they just don't want to...
Second because God created a woman's body capable of producing and providing food from our own bodies.. how beautiful is that! it just can't get better than that...
Plus the connection you get with your newborn is just out of this world.. I can't even explain it..
If you need help with breastfeeding, contact a lactation consultant! or go to
www.lalecheleague.com you'll find lots of tips on how to breast feed properly, I highly recomend it!
Enough of that.. still sad.. I can't celebrate Valentines day with my love.. i guess we will get the chance in the years to come.

Daddy's First Diaper!

Well not really first one.. but the first time I caught him on Camera!
