One Month!

By -
As every new momma says, "Holy Smokes! Where has the time gone?!" Little Haven is ONE MONTH old today!! Wowsers! I haven't posted anything since her birth (I wonder why?! :) But plan on posting the birth story and a before and after of her nursery. So happy Aaron finishes his first year of medical school today. Hallelujah! It will be so nice to maybe get a little sleep at night. Anyway... Here is her one month photo...


The bear is from Aunt Mary, the blue blanket made by Aunt Chris and the adorable dress a gift from "Uncle Kevin" and "Aunt Ashley"! Thanks everyone!!


In the first month I have...

Learned to eat, poop and stay wide awake unless I'm incredibly sleepy. Momma has to put me in the ergo sometimes when I'm past exhaustion.
I love my cloth diapers and to be swaddled and cuddled.
I sleep next to Momma's bed in my Pack N Play and am excited for Papa to join us at night.
I'm still searching for my thumb, but have found my fingers...That's the cue for Momma to feed me.
I love it when Momma sings (the meaning of my name),
"Lord, Prepare Me to be a Sanctuary."
I already am loving this world and can't wait to see what I've accomplished in my second month!

 On the morning of Thursday, September 16, 2021 I woke up eagerly to get ready for our co-op with Classical Conversations. However, I noticed I was having contractions that seemed to be rhythmic. I decided to download a timing app and noticed them coming every 5 minutes or so for the next hour. I began to wonder if I was going into labor. I was so excited I messaged my co-op director that we wouldn't be going to CC that day because I thought I might possibly be in labor. I didn't want to make the drive 25 minute drive and then have to immediately come home. I also messaged my friend who was planning to shoot the birth. I messaged her giving her the heads up that I thought I was in labor, but wasn't positive, and didn't want to declare anything quite yet. This is very normal for me. I am usually in denial about being in labor even when it is painfully obvious.   With the contractions so close together and for over an hour, I was convinced she would arrive sometime in the...

Here we are with the bear again... 24 months, aka 2 years old, aka the testing of my character begins... Sure glad I have the Holy Spirit to guide me... I am talking, running, jumping all over the place.  I went to Hawaii with my family and had a blast at the beach playing in the sand and water. I love "kicking the ball!" with Papa. I started calling Momma, Mommy, but Papa is still Papa. I love animals especially my cat, Peng! I am going potty on the potty consistently. Just don't go anywhere without my little potty. I am still wetting the bed at night, but we are working on that one. I love playing at the park, and going down the slide is my favorite. I enjoy hanging out with my friends and being silly. My hair is getting very long and Momma is trying to get me to sit still to make it look fancy. My favorite show is Baby Einstein (when Papa will let me watch it). I went to the zoo for the very first time with Momma and Pa...

Ten Months!

Oh my, only a couple more months and my babe will be ONE YEAR!! Ahhhhh. But for now, I will enjoy these next couple of months.   This month has been a BIG month for me. DOUBLE DIGITS!   In the tenth month I have...   Whistled. I'm quick and keep Momma on her feet. She never knows when I'm going to do it, that way she can't get it on tape. ;)   Started clapping my hands. If you do a good job, don't worry I will clap for you. I also like to clap when music is playing.   Become a "pro" waver.   We left on my 10 month birthday for Seattle and I walked Papa to the door. Before he closed the front door and had the chance to say goodbye, I waved him off.   Learned to turn on my butt in circles. (It's my nice way of saying I don't want to listen to you... Everyone just thinks it's a new trick though.)   BIGGEST accomplishment of ALL... I have officially started crawling. Momma and Papa (and everyone else!)...
