7 Months Old

She just gets cuter and cuter. She sits so well now and is working on how to get out of that position when she is done. She only cries when she gets hurt and if you put her in bed. Other than that she is a grunter and a talker to tell you what she wants. I am trying to teach her sign language. She has milk down but that's about it. She started waving about a week ago. Thanks go out to my Aunt Kathy for teaching her that one. It's so cute the way she does it.

Zaria has a bed!

Well we missed her 5 mo photo (I only took them on my phone.) But we got her a crib finally for her 6 mo. Jeremy did a good job putting it together. Zaria played on her really cool comforter while he worked. When he was done....she slept in it! It's hit and miss sometimes but she's doing a lot better now than she was.

4 Months

Ok so she is 4 months old in this pic. I know it's late but at least it's here!

3 Months!

Today Zaria is 3 months old! Her pic is in the blue outfit. This month has been so fun. She has started to play with toys, which I love because I finally get a little break where she can entertain herself. Her favorite toy I didn't get a picture of. It's a yellow duck that rattles, vibrates, and has crinkle wings. Also she talks so much. Her picture with dad is them talking back and forth. Jeremy likes to hide it from me so I picture while I could. They are so cute together. She is getting better at not cry every time she has gas or a bowl movement. Instead she sucks on her thumb! I guess it's a trade-off. I love her so much. She loves it when you make exploding noises and move her hands in a like fashion. She smiles when you sing "Jesus Wants Me For a Sunbeam", and I think the cutest thing she does is when she's upset. She'll talk to me, but in a little whine and just wants to be held. She does it when she's hungry, has messy pants, or is in pain. I love that wants to talk to me. I hope it never changes.

2 Months

Zaria was blessed 3 days before she was 2 months old so I'm using this pic as her 2 month. All of Jeremy's family was there and so we used the opportunity to take a family picture. We also took one of my side but many are missing. I made the blessing dress. It's not perfect but I think she pulled it off nicely. She slept most of the drive and handled the trip well I thought. She started smiling and talking and at her doctor's appointment she was 24" long and 12lbs 6oz. She is getting so big! I felt terrible when she got her shots. She screamed really hard twice and then whined for a few minutes as she fell asleep. I wish I could have done more than just comfort her.

One Month!

I made it a month! Hooray for the new mom! Hopefully things will get easier. She's getting so big.

Daddy's Little Girl

I love my little girl, even when everything doesn't go as planned. I took her to church in the beautiful dress that my Grandmother bought for her and she did great on her first Sunday....until I tried to take a picture for Grandma. I think it's really cute when her headband falls around her eyes, and it's even cuter that it doesn't upset her. And last but best, she has her fathers hair. When Jeremy wakes up his hair always has some funky wall, it sticks out in the funniest ways. Zaria's hair does the exact same thing! Luckily it's so fine that it will calm down in about 30 minutes so I don't have to wash it everytime she sleeps.
