Going Private

After much thought I've decided to go private. Yes, I became one of those people after having a baby to decide to go private. So come the first of next month this blog will no longer be open to the public.

5 Months already?

Holy moly where is the time going? My baby girl is already 5 months old today.
She is so fun and we love watching her grow and learn.

At her dermatology appointment they weighed her and she is now 14 pounds

She knows her name and especially her mom and dad's voice.
Ryan made me cut the cord and she spend her first night in her room last night.. it was a success though! I kept looking at the monitor watching her making sure she was breathing and ok...yeah I know, a bit paranoid?

Fun Facts:
She is sitting up now! Only for a minute till she falls over unless she has her boppy around her to help support.

Still wearing 3-6 month clothing. I just packed more 3 month pants now that they are too short for her
and still in size 1 diapers
Can hold her bottle by herself

Loves:
Sleeping on her side, her wubbanub and can now put it back in her mouth after it's fallen down,
loves cuddling, bath time, being around people. She has found her toes and is always grabbing and playing with them
She loves listening to her voice, Ryan caught her on camera while I was at work as she was yelling and shouting happily for a good 10 minutes.

Hates:
Getting dressed, having a dirty diaper, being left a lone some times.

-MJ's good news with her hemangioma

Well good news! We went and saw the dermatologist today and it is in fact a hemangioma, just a deep tissue one. It will go away on it's own with in a year give or take. So thrilled that she didn't need to take a biopsy and all is well with our little MJ

Happy Easter!

The Easter Bunny arrived! and brought lots of goodies for MJ. Rice cereal, baby spf and a sun hat, bowls, spoons. No candy this year!

First time trying out some rice cereal...

Messy but it was a success!

Tomorrow is another appointment to have this thing looked at... wish us luck!

Awful:

Not looking forward to Monday, bitter sweet to have MJ's possible hemangioma tested since it has grown

This weather is a joke! One day it's gorgeous out, nice and sunny....the next as in today, it's snowing!

Picking up medication at the pharmacy to find out it was all messed up and they wanted to charge me $90 for something that cost me $15 last time...yeah freaking right. I most certainly did not pay for it.

Going for a walk on a beautiful afternoon...than seeing pink on my bald headed girl the next day. Time to buy some baby spf!

Awesome:

Finally catching MJ laughing on video.

Early Easter dinner with my fam due to parentals being gone for the majority of April

Pinterest craft night with the ladies

Going with the husband to the Temple for the first time since before I had MJ. Something that was very needed.
