i cannot believe jayna is 6 mo. old!!!
here are the stats from her 6 mo. appt on 10/9/07:
she is 15 lb 7 oz (35%)
26 inches long (55%)
her head is 44 cm (88%... she has trav's big head)
jayna you are growing up too fast!!! AND she crawls!!!! she can sit up if you sit her up but she can't get into that position by herself. she is very cheerful and everyone says she is the smiliest baby they've ever seen!! and she loves her mama! :) every night when i get home from work she starts freaking out until i pick her up and hold her. she is so cute.

jayna had her first ear infection this week. i hope it's not the beginning of what we went through with alysen although i have this funny feeling it is. they weighed her and she was 14.8, so she's gained almost a lb. since her 4 mo. appt. it's so funny, alysen was 15 lbs @ 3 mo. and jayna's not even 15 at 5 mo. my crazy kids!!
it's been FOREVER.
jayna will be 4 months old tomorrow! unbelieveable!!
she rolled over from back to front today. she did front to back @ 11 weeks (probably the last time i posted here!) and also actually ROLLED across the floor this evening!
i can't believe how big she is getting!!
jayna rolled over!!!
2x from her stomach to her back.
:)
she is 11 weeks 2 days old.
jayna had her 2 month well baby check up yesterday.
(at 9 weeks/2 days) she is 10.6 lbs and 22.5 inches long. she is very healthy and has started smiling. she is very alert and very good at holding her head up. she also loves, loves, loves tummy time!!! she still wakes up 2x/night to eat, usually around 12-1 and then 4-5. she sleeps in her bassinet most of the time but comes into bed with me between her 12-1 and her 4-5 feedings. :)
i need to post new pics but i can't find the camera.
damn move!

i had my 6 week post-partum checkup yesterday and everything is fine. i can't believe it's been 6 weeks!! and what an emotional rollercoaster 6 weeks at that. the home health nurse came today for jayna and she is up to 8 lb 14 oz, 20 inches. wild.. she's gained a whole 2 lbs since she came home and you can totally tell. she's filling out her clothes better and her cheeks are so cute. i'm starting to see resemblences between her and alysen-as-baby. she has a much darker skin tone than alysen does/did though. alysen is alabaster like me. :P
i need to take some new pictures.
hopefully i can do that soon.
♥
happy one month, jayna!!
i love you!
(i hope you're not developing colic. I HOPE, I HOPE!)
okay, i don't know how to start this.
except i am very sad. i wasn't before today. everything was fine.
but i am feeling overwhelmed and alysen is being a complete brathead. she doesn't listen to ANYTHING until i yell at her, and then she looks so sad. i feel so bad when she looks like that. she comes to me and says "i love you mom, i love you" and wants hugs. it's like why does she have to push me to be that mad??? i shouldn't have to ask her things 10 freaking times!!!! i even had to spank her at playgroup today. (thank you for not giving my your opinions on spanking. i was spanked, and i spank in appropriate situations. end of discussion.) it's so hard because i can't lift her, so i can't just carry her out of someplace like i usually would if she's being bad. i just gave jayna her first bath... and i felt like i couldn't "enjoy" it like i did with alysen. i had alysen under my feet and trav in the living room watching tv with the kids... i don't know. then i had to yell at alysen because she knocked the baby shampoo down off the counter. my nerves are just burned. this brings me to not wanting to move... it will be me alone with both of them for hours longer than i am now, and alysen doesn't listen to me at all. plus i won't even have any friends to go hang out with so i'll be all lonely. plus i don't want to pack. i am just .... overwhelmed.
anyway. thanks for listening. you don't even have to comment.
