7 Weeks and Growing

It has been a few weeks since we have updated this as we have been super busy with lots of things!!! Whitney is growing every day and we can't believe that she will be 7 weeks tomorrow!!! She continues to be more aware of life around her! She loves watching her mobile in her swing and could spend hours watching the turtle, whale and fish go around in circle!!




Along with loving her swing, Whitney loves to cuddle with us!!! We probably give in more than we should, but we figure she will only be this small for a short amount of time! Plus, it is so easy to cuddle with such a cutie!!





Another cute thing she has started to do it sleep with her arms straight up in the air! It is so funny to watch. We can put her arms down and she will put them back up! So funny...that we have called Jodi's family and had them watch on the web cam. Not sure how her little shoulders don't hurt, but she continues to do it!





Other than that...we have enjoyed watching her grow and continue to gain a personality. We are very lucky as she sleeps more of the night with most nights getting up around 5:30 or so. She is like her parents in liking sleep! She enjoy going to the basketball games and walking with mom in the stroller. We can't believe how fast the time has flown! Jodi only has 3 and half more weeks before starting up subbing and is sad it has gone so fast. However, Whitney and Jodi will be flying to Idaho next week (should be exciting with her first plane ride!!!) to see the family!!! We are very excited to be able to go and see everyone!!! Two weeks won't be long enough, but we will miss Wade very much while we are out there!!! The next blog will probably be after we get back from Idaho, so stay tuned for all the exciting pictuers from the plane and Whit's first trip to the great state of Idaho to see Jodi's family and all the exciting things we are going to do!!!

Growing up so BIG!!!
















Well..Wade and I have made it almost 4 weeks with a little baby and she is still alive...so a very good thing!!! :) She is doing so well and continues to grow as well as starting to show a little personality! This coming Wednesday she will be 4 weeks and on Saturday, she will be a month old. We can't believe that she will already be a month old as the time with her is flying by so fast!!! Whitney and myself(Jodi) are having a lot of fun being home and enjoying each other (or at least I think she enjoys being with me!!!). We love taking naps together, reading books, and playing with toys (I of course help with the reading books and playing with the toys!!). She expereinced her first William Penn basketball games and did very well!!! She looked around the whole time and the noise didn't bother her one bit! She continues to sleep through most of the night which is helping dad in not being crabby!!!! We also had a our first family night where we had pizza and watched Finding Nemo! She fell asleep during the first part, but it was nice to spend time as a family! Whitney and Jodi will be going out to Idaho in a month and we are very excited to go out there!!! Wade's family has been able to come down and visit and enjoy Whitney!! It has been very nice seeing them and letting them enjoy Whitney! She has started to laugh, smile lots more and follow items and people with her eyes!!! She can hold her neck up for long periods of times and especially loves bath time!!! I think if we left her in there, she could spend hours enjoying the warm water!!! We feel very blessed to have such a good baby and are taking every day and just enjoying her as she grows more each day!!!
