July 7th...Blessing Day! Thanks to all Jadelyn's family and friends for supporting us and coming to see her on this sacred, special occasion...
Momma loved picking out Jadelyn's dress for her special day. It wasn't easy, and she regrets all those years she could have learned to sew! But alas...found one, and it matched Jade perfectly. It was originally long sleeved, but my wonderful sewer friend Barbara changed it for us...Thanks Barb!
The day was filled with family and friends and love. Ate delicious food at the clubhouse and baby finally got a nap when the celebration was almost through ;)
First Sunday back to church in June due to Mom's illness and Dad's back surgery :) Almost made it through, had to leave a little early :)
Pooh Chair! Thanks Aunt Sandy!
Baby girls hair has always stuck straight up! Especially after baths....
Daddy holding Jadelyn after 2 month shots :( She's always got her eye on Momma!
Just wanted to cuddle...fast asleep...poor baby, did so well though! She was fine after the first evening. Slept pretty well that night and was 100% the next day....

Family Pic!!!
Two words: GLOW WORM!!!
My friend told me a little while ago that she starts using this when her kids are 3-4months old when they nap/bedtime to associate it with sleeping. She doesn't get to play with it out of her crib. This is the day I gave it to her and she loved it!
You press on it's belly and it lights up and sings for 5 minutes as it lulls baby to sleep. I wish I could create something like this! People are so smart. We love "Glowie"... We work really hard to establish a sleep schedule over here so we all don't go crazy, if you haven't noticed. This has definitely helped!
Oh my goodness. Even though being a first time Mom has its challenges, I've learned so much! I LOVE babies. Its been so much fun to experience being a Mom with Jadelyn. She is such a sweetheart, I mean look at this pic! I love babies!
Sitting with Mom on the porch! Bright sun!
Love her smiles...
