SO, before I forget everything or am too tired after Chemistry class... baby J weighed in at 12 lbs 8 oz. lower than I assumed she would be and lower than they would like her at this point. She has this really BIG grey area for everything because technically she is only 4 months even though she is 6 months. Over all they said she is continually progressing and they are happy with what they see. Her umbilical hernia is going away slowly but surely! She got 5 shots today, they gave her 2 before she realized what was going on and screamed till she turned purple and I thought she would never catch her breath. She is now fast asleep and will probably stay that way most of the day. She reacts well to shots thank goodness. To help with the weight they now would like us to mix in rice cereal with her bottles and in a month try spoon feeding her the rice cereal along with starting her on baby food, veggies first. She is growing up soooo fast and its sad that Shawn (well and her mom I suppose) are missing out on all these exciting mile stones. As long as she is with us, she is safe and healthy and we are blessed to have this opportunity of witnessing a miracle really. She was born 2 months early weighing in at only 2 lbs, at 2 months when we brought her home she only weighed 5 lbs. so she has come along way! Thats all I have for now, going to finish up my Chemistry homework while J is taking her nap.
On a side note: LOVING this cloudy AZ rainy weather the past 2 days. I have lived in so many places but AZ has the most amazing rain storms around!!
