January 31st

Hi Everyone!
Guess what she is 6 months old TODAY! Crazy right
We had her 6 month appointment today and she did wonderful. She is 27 3/4 inches long and 19 lbs 13 oz. Dr Z said that she is the length of a 10 month old and weight of an 11 month old. Faith loves to sit up and play with her toys but still has not rolled over yet. We have to work on that. She is starting stage 2 foods and we have the ok to drink juice and water. Seems so early but hey I don't know much about all this.
On January 22nd Faith was baptized at St. Annes. It was a wonderful morning. Nick and Amee are the godparents and they did a wonderful job. Many friends and family came to celebrate with us and it just made the day even better. Thank you everyone for all the wonderful gifts you gave Miss Faith.
On last friday we went to EVIT and took Faith's 6 month pictures. Cousin Brooklyn was able to come too and take many pictures as well. Although Brooklyn was more interested in scrapbooking the pictures. She is taking after her family quiet well. All in due time Faith will want to do the same. Well it is bed time and I must go put our princess down to sleep.

January 11, 2011

Not too much new but Faith is sitting up un attended for a few minutes! Yeah! Of course she can't sit herself up on her own but she sits. Can't believe she is already sitting. I am sooooo excited. She started eating fruit on Sunday, today is Tuesday so 3 days of applesauce. Yummy! Faith liked the applesauce not quite sure if her tummy did. Tomorrow we start peaches and I have prunes on hand just in case :/
Don't forget everyone Faith's Baptism is January 22nd at 8am at St. Anne's Catholic Church. Please come and help celebrate this mile stone in her life. Light breakfast after at our house.
Sorry don't have my camera on me so I don't have any new pictures to up load. But, don't worry she is cute still maybe even cutier. :)

Happy New Year and Happy 5th Month Bday Faith

Well Happy New Year to everyone! It has been a wonderful christmas season and Faith lucked out with a ton of toys and clothes. Faith really enjoyed opening gifts. I know many of you are saying she is only 5 months how does she know the difference. I saw it! I saw it in her eyes when I would put a present in front of her. Her eyes just got large and a big smile was plastered on her face. Faith would grab the paper while I pulled to revel the musical light show hiding under the paper we call her new toys.
Daddy and I have spent a lot of quality time with Miss Faith over the past 2 weeks and it has been wonderful but... tomorrow starts back to the working grind and she gets to spend time with Mia and grandma again. They have made it very clear that they miss her tons and can't wait to spend time with her again.
Faith has been recognizing her toys are loves to play with them as well as grab them and talks to them. She loves to sit in her pink tea bouncer while she watches Nick Jr. She will last a good 30 minutes to 45 minutes sitting in the bouncer before she realizes that she is hungry or tired. Faith has also been eating in her big girl high chair and she loves it. Last night daddy was watching football and was going to leave so I asked him to put Nick Jr and her head turned so fast once daddy put her TV on. Then she was glued while she ate her dinner.
January is going to be busy for all of us but I am hoping she sits up soon, she can stand on her own as long as she is holding onto something. Of course it doesn't last long but it is a beginning. For everyone who has not had the grace of meeting Faith she has had very strong legs since the days she was born and she loves to stand and sit up, more so then lay down.
After Christmas Aunt Katy stayed in town to hang out with Faith so we went to the zoo for the 1st time and Faith seemed to like it but I think she enjoyed looking at the million people that were there as well.
Don't forget Faith's Baptism is January 22nd at 8am at St Ann's Catholic Church. Hope to see you!
