Sweet Child of Mine

Hey Sweety,
Tonight you took a bath with Daddy and I. We were in the jacuzi tub. You had such a good time! Poor baby, you have had a stuffy nose since Wed, almost a week. You will nurse, then have to take a big breath, then nurse, then breath...I guess Oklahoma is going to reak havok on your allergies. Oh Yeah we gave you a red ball to play with and you LOVED it!
I Love you so much, you have inspired me to be a better person

1st plane ride

Today Aug 5th 2005, You and I are going to Arizona to visit Chris, Dana & Blake Byers. You flew in an airplane for the very 1st time. You did GREAT! I let you nurse on the way up, that way your little ears did not hurt, on the way down i gave you your pacifier, even though you prefer to suck on your fingers on your right hand. You only slept for about 30-45 min on the plane. You were very interested in all the people and listening to the flight attendant talk.

Thumb

When you nurse you wrap your hand around my thumb, and nestle you head in the bend of my arm. You also make the cutest coo sounds while your eating. You are a very fast eater. When Aunt Kerri watched you , she gave you and Makayla a bottle at the same time and when you had finished your 6 oz, Makayla had only finished 3oz.

4 months & 1 week

Today your Dad and I went to the lake with Uncle CJ, Aunt Kari Jo, Kim and Trevor. You stayed with your Papa and Nindy. They have so much fun with you, I have never seen grandparents that do as much or love their grandchild like they do you!
When I was nursing you tonight a thought came to me: It will not be long and you will not fit in my arms or on my lap. I rocked you as you nursed. I stroked your cheek, and looked into your eyes, I wish these times could last forever. I love you so much, every day with you is a gift!
