3 Months

I hesitate to write this for fear of the almighty Jinx--but life with our Jordan is becoming more about smiles and less about screaming. For these last couple of weeks we are so grateful! Jordan almost always wakes up with big smiles that last all day. Favorite activities include blowing bubbles and batting at any toy that rattles. And talking to Mom and Dad. And eating. The girl can put it down. She has developed some gorgeous thigh rolls and I've had to pack away some of her newborn clothes (insert overly emotional mom-sigh here). She is such a joy to be with that I now understand why our parents were so darn strict with us when we were kids. Ahhh, parenting....life will never be the same.

Week One

Great Grandma Marquita Griswold and cousin Jamie


The first week came and went. We have been blessed with so many friends and family visiting, making us meals and praying for our parenting success. Bouncing on the exercise ball seems to be the 'if all else fails method' and trips in the car seem to sooth her as well.
This week she has gained back her birth weight and all the questions we had for the pediatrician seemed to be par for the course for first time parents. Dr. Brennan said for us not to sweat the small stuff.

Bath Day!















'I don't know if I like that bath thing'.


















Happy Bday to me!

At Home

We love having Jordan at home, out of that hospital and all the beeping machines, interruptions and blah food. Today we had some visitors and took Jordan for her first walk.

Bode came by to scope out Jordan and had fun playing with Scout. "Ace!"

Jordan Jane

She is finally here! After 9 months talking through my wifes belly I finally got to meet my little girl on Sunday May 4th. We are still getting to know each other but our time has been so precious. Today we had a staring contest on the couch for a half an hour.
Cami spent 30 hours explaining to Jordan that she was being evicted from her belly. Reluctantly the 8 pound 14 ounce (alien in my belly as Cami called it) took a breath of fresh air and accepted her position in the family.
