Jordyn is Two Months Old!!

Well this is really old but I wanted to get it up so I could do a four month update and talk about some of the things that we have been up to.  So today Jordyn turns two months old!!  I know it seems impossible.  I remember the day that I found out that I had to wait ten more days to have her.  That day feels like ten days ago not two months ago.  Adding Jordyn to our family has been amazing.  Don't get me wrong there has been many ups and downs but I am in love.  I never in my life thought that I could fall in love four times but I have!!!  One of the things that I love about having Jordyn in our family is how Kenton and Madison love her as much as I do.  A couple of days ago she had a shirt on that said Mommy's Girl.  Madison asked what it said and I told her.  Her response was "No Mom, she is my girl."  I love that.

We have a picture of each of the kids at seven days old on their Daddy's lap.  I hope to get all three of them and post them on here soon.
 
Jordyn is a great baby.  She is a little more needy then her brother and sister where but not anything that we can't handle.  One of the things that she loves to do is sleep.  I just wish that she would sleep a little better at night and not during the day.  Jordyn loves to sleep in her swing, in her bed, and in her Daddy's arms.  One of the things that is a little different about her then our other kids is the amount that she wants to be held.  She likes her swing but at the same time would rather be held.  One of the reason why I think that she likes to be held so much is she can hear our hearts and knows that she is not alone.  I have read that a baby who are born blind love to be with it's parents at all time.  I love caring and holding Jordyn but at the same time need to put her down sometimes just to get things done around the house. 



If Jordyn is not sleeping she probably eating.  Jordyn eats like a charm.  My oldest son Kenton was a great eater too.  Madison my second child was kind of a light eater.  I would say that Jordyn is somewhere in the middle of them.  She likes to eat about every two to two and a half hours and to eat about 3 1/2 to 4 ounces.  Jordyn really likes to drink breast milk!!

Jordyn is not very fond of laying on the floor either on her stomach or her back.  I do think that she would like it better if she did not have someone laying with her and bothering her all the time.  I try to get her some floor time when the kids are napping or when they are in bed for the night.  One of the things that I noticed is that she kind of likes laying on her stomach.  I don't think that my other kids liked laying on their stomach like she did. 


An example why I can't let her be on the floor for long!!!

My First love and my fourth love!!!!!!!

Kenton's first day of school.  I told them I wanted to take a picture of Kenton and I ended up with them wanting a picture like this!!! 

One of the best things that I love doing with Jordyn is talking with her.  When you are changing her diaper she loves to talk to you.  At night when the other kids are asleep she loves to lay on the floor with you and talk.  Jordyn loves to smile and laugh a lot.  Jordyn started smiling around day two at the hospital.  When she first smiled she had a little smirk.  Now she has a beautiful smile.  Another thing that I love is her laught.  Most of the time when she laughs it is a cute belly laugh. 


 Well as you can see by the picture's Jordyn is well loved.  I am so happy that I have three amazing children.  Jordyn has been a great baby especially since she has to compete with a four and two year old!!
