Update

Jan 12, 2009 20:59

Almost 12 weeks since Keiran came home. I kept meaning to update but apparently Daymon and I created a high needs baby. Essentially this means that she is attached to me in some form all the time. If you want to learn more about high needs babies:

I have a hard enough time eating lunch or going to the bathroom when Daymon is at work. That the powers that be that he is a very involved father and a supportive husband. Oddly enough she seems to do okay in social situations although I don't dare take her anywhere by myself. Now that I have realized that I was put on this earth to serve her, there is at least less crying during the day. I still wish I could get her to sleep in a crib instead of on me. I am sure it will get better as she gets more mobile and more into play since I believe she is frustrated with being a baby.

She is getting so big. She is 10.5 pounds, 23 inches long. She smiles, she babbles, she watches toys (although that is usually 15 - 20 mins about 2 times a day). She can sit and stand with a little support. She has kept her hair (Daymon and I were both tow heads with little hair).

I am sure I have more to say but my brain is fried. Hopefully the next update will be in less than 12 weeks.
