My Baby Is Three Today


Three years ago today I was wheeled into the operating room and at 6:24 a.m. I was the proud Mommy of a beautiful little girl. Now the little 4lb.13oz., 19 in. long baby I brought home, is a 3ft. tall 32 lb. three year old girl. Kaitlyn is such a smart, sweet, absolutely precious little girl and I am so proud and lucky to be her Mommy. Happy third birthday Kaitlyn, Mommy and Daddy Love You!!!

The Things Kids Say

Kaitlyn is always saying funny things and she remembers EVERYTHING. Her favorite sayings now are "it's freaking my out", "forget it", "I floated an air biscuit", and "I squeezed the cheese". The last two she got from watching weird science with me one time. Kaitlyn also remembers that I was pregnant for a short time in September/October, and occasionally mentions that "Meleah is having a baby brother soon and I am having a baby sister". It breaks my heart that I can't explain to her that a baby isn't coming, so I just tell her that hopefully sometime soon we will have a baby sister. Today she said "Maleah is going to have a baby brother soon and I am going to have a baby sister and I will rock her in the rocking chair, this rocking chair (pointing to the one in our living room)". Please keep praying that we get pregnant soon, every month that passes makes it harder and harder and I am losing hope!

Confession Of A New Mommy 2

One time when Kaitlyn was a about a year and a half old, I forgot to feed her dinner once. I had been at Miranda's all day watching Maleah. Kaitlyn fell asleep in the car on the way home, and was still sleeping when we got home. We went inside, I laid Kaitlyn down in the pack-n-play and got started on dinner.Kevin and I ate dinner, then we cleaned up......Kaitlyn was still napping. After dinner on nice days we would take a nice walk, so Kaitlyn woke up and we got ready for our walk. When we got home I gave Kaitlyn a bath, read her a story, gave her a cup of milk, and then it was off to bed. Kaitlyn was unusually fussy, and I couldn't get her to sleep no matter what I tried. Then I finally realized the poor kid was starving, because I forgot to feed her dinner after she woke up from her nap. I felt like such a bad Mommy for the longest time after that, and I have never forgotten to feed her again.
