SETTLING IN . . .
What a wonderful month! Bria has had the opportunity to meet
almost all of her family, and they are all so in love with her!
We had a combined welcome home and 1st birthday party for her
about a week after we returned, and it was so much fun! She had
her own little cake to dig into, but she didn’t get as messy as
we thought she would. Later in the month, she was honored with a
wonderful shower at our church where she received so many
incredible gifts! We are so very blessed!
About 6 days after we returned home, she started to WALK!! We
were so excited!!! She still is only taking about 6-8 steps at a
time, but she’s on her way! She finally has some teeth--two
little teeth on the bottom have peeked through since we returned
home. She is still just as vocal as ever and has learned to say
mama, dada, bubba, gaga, papa and many other words that only she
can interpret. She plays peek-a-boo and blows precious kisses—it
is so adorable! She is still a great eater and doesn’t seem to
know when to stop. She has gained about 2 ˝ pounds in the 5
weeks she has been with us—making her now a huge 18 ˝ pounds
(less than 3 percentile on the growth charts….).
On September 18th, we took her and Kaden to see Disney on Ice at
the State Fair, and afterwards she rode the carousel for the
first time. She loved it!!! On September 29th, we took them both
to “A Day Out With Thomas” where we rode on a normal sized train
that was pulled by Thomas the Tank Engine (Kaden was in
heaven!).
Words cannot describe what a tremendous blessing precious Bria
is to our family! We cannot imagine life without her, and we
thank God each day for bringing her into our family. She is
adapting miraculously and continues to blossom each and every
day. We are so very, very thankful for our little bundle of
joy!!!!!! |
Welcome Home Sweetie!!!!
Gymnastics, Here I Come!!! |
Kaden sharing with baby sister--so sweet!!
So happy to be home!
She loved the carousel ride at the fair!
Of Course I'm a Sooner Fan!
