A year of firsts

This year we are celebrating many firsts with Jaden. It's so exciting and it makes me a little emotional to think of it!

Jaden is now 6.5 months. At her recent appt we got the wonderful news we love hearing - she is a healthy thriving 6 mo old. She's now 15.7 lbs and 27 inches long. She's hitting all the developmental milestones and boy has she found her voice! She's a little chatterbox and will yell just to hear herself yell!!

At her 6 mo appt

This past week her 1st tooth broke through. Thank goodness she's handling it very well. She's been a little cranky and clingy, but that's it :) She's so close to crawling. She is rocking on her hands and knees and we're watching in anticipation of the first crawl.

Here are some recent pictures. Enjoy!

Much love,
Christy, Benny, and Jaden

Dear Blog...

Dear Blog (and friends that read you),

I'm sorry I've been so neglectful over the past couple of months. You see, I have this crazy, beautiful life now that has me running in so many directions. I know you are important too because you are my way of keeping my friends/family up to date with what's going on in my world.

I promise to be better about updating you. I have so many things I want to share with everyone. I feel like it's been so long I don't even know where to start!! Well, this weekend I'm going to update you on what's been going on with us. Jaden is getting big so fast and I want to share some new milestones we are hitting.

Thanks for understanding.

Your friend,
Christy
