Things are starting to get a little better with Genesis and her little tantrums. We went to Wal-Mart a couple of days ago and she did great.

She also has started to suck her thumb. Just out of no where one day she started doing it. At first I thought maybe she wanted her pacifier but she will spit it out just to suck her thumb.

Genesis appointment is tomorrow I can't wait to see how much she weighs. I'm hoping she won't act up. *sigh* well I guess we'll see.

Genesis @ 3 mths

Genesis @ 3 mths

Yesterday Genesis turned 3 months! Oh, how time flies..it seems it was just yesterday when I was admitted into the hospital. She has grown so much, last time she went to the doctor she was 11 pds and that was when she was 6 wks. Genesis is now 12 wks so I think she is at least 14 or 15 pounds if not more.

Yesterday Genesis had one of her episodes. I went to the doctor yesterday and she was fine till we got into the elevator she cried... no SCREAMED as lound as she could. I don't know why. She wasn't hungry nor wet. Once my husband went down stairs she calmed down. At first I was thinking colic but I read it happens in the late evening and around the same time every day. She only cries when we go places and its always at a different time. I have yet to figure out whats wrong.

I am still breast feeding and I have been thinking about when should I stop. 6 mths? 1 yr? Or should I just let her stop when she is ready? hmmm I haven't decided yet. Speaking of breast I am making an appt to see if I have an infection. One is insanely large and the other is smaller. I have no idea if its normal or not. They hurt sometimes and I feel lumps. I'm not sure if its breast tissue, milk ducts or what. I'm so worried..hopefully every thing is fine.

Now some good news!! We have made plans to go to sea world this summer..yayy!! Genesis will be around 12 or 13 mths. Jay is really excited and so am I.

Oh, What A Day!!

Right now I should be cleaning up or organizing but I would much rather be blogging. Lets talk about Genesis! She is becoming more spoiled!! She has her days when she will do just fine then there are those days when she just wants me and me only to hold her. I will bathe her, feed her and rock her to sleep and I can see her eyes getting heavier and heavier...I lay her down gently and I tip toe away ...about 2 minutes later (if that) wahhh!!! I repeat this cycle till she is too tired to get up. Not only is she like this at bed time but all through out the day.

Another scenario.

Genesis has began to cry when she gets sleepy or tired. She just started this about three or four days ago, and this is how I found out. Saturday we (my hubby, Jay, and myself) got up to do some grocery shopping at Wal-Mart. On the way there Genesis was calm and quite. We proceeded to go in the store, we were not in there 10 minutes when she began crying. I gave her-her paci (didn't want it) tried to rock her a bit (that was a no-no) so I decided I would give her a bottle till I looked in the diaper bag and realized I forgot a bottle of water at home. So I walked to the front to get a bottle water meanwhile she is screaming to the top of her lungs. I fixed her bottle and tried to give it to her but once again ....she didn't want it. I thought maybe she wants to breast feed so I walked to the car and attempted to breast feed. Genesis just cried, cried and CRIED. I began rocking her and she drifted off. So we attempted once again to do a little shopping. She was great while she was ASLEEP when she woke up she began crying AGAIN!! We decided we should just leave and come back another time. We decided we would go at night since that's when she is awake and less fussy. Last night we attempted to do some grocery shopping and it went okay. She cried but not as nearly as much as she did that Saturday. I'm wondering is she always going to be like this. I certainly hope not!! I hate it when she cries and see those tears it just breaks my heart. Hopefully this will become a thing of the past very soon!

9 week update

Things have been going great she got her one month old shot when she turned 6 weeks and I felt horrible she cried on and off for about 10 minutes. All I could do was was hold her and kiss her. Even though she didnt have any reaction to the vaccine I still plan on delaying her vaccintions until she gets a little bit older.

Genesis is starting to sleep more.. not as much as I would like but I am definately happy about that .She has grown ALOT and I can't wait to see how much weight she has gained since her last doctor visit. Oh she has started to coo..and it is oh so cute! I love hearing her making those noises. She is smiling more and more alert especially when I breast feed her she just stares in eyes and give my finger a tight hold..which I love..love..love!

I must say she is closer to me than my husband. Im guessing because I breast-feed her which forms a bond and with him working two jobs does not all allow him to be at home as much. sometimes she won't let anyone hold her but me. So were now working on father and daughter time so she will be as close to him as she is with me.

.She is definately one of the best things that ever happened to me. My life is so different now but I (here goes that word again) LOVE every bit of the change that has happened. I enjoy being her mother waking up with her next to me.

She loves bath time!!
