January 2010

So it's a New Year that starts out like every year that I can remember....COLD SEASON!!!  :(  I started back at work in the office full time January 4th which was also Kelsey's first day at daycare.  Needless to say not a happy day for Mommy and Daddy.  Kelsey was unphased.  It's a strange thing to pray to God for him to bless you with a baby...to then leave this blessing with complete strangers for the majority of the day.  However....it's a necessity at this point and we are happy with the place we chose and the people who are watching her.  What we're not happy with...the initiation into daycare...colds!  Kelsey got her first cold a week after being there.  Thankfully she seems to be at the tail end of it now...and the humidifier in her room is doing wonders at night.  She's still sleeping through the night (relatively except during one week of the cold where she was stuffed up).  She's eating really well but not napping well at the daycare.  But I can't complain because she's a happy baby.  She had her 4 month check up where she measured in the 96th percentile for height and 80th for weight.  In addition, her reflux seems to be subsiding thankfully.  She is almost rolling over when on the playmat...which is just surreal to me because I feel like we just brought her home from the hospital yesterday.  She is truly the greatest joy in our lives and we couldn't be happier. 

In other news...we will be welcoming two more nephews within the next week on Chuck's side of the family.  Both his sister Jen and Kim are scheduled to be induced unless they go naturally....we anxiously await their arrival....which will make 18 neices and nephews for us.  LOVE BIG FAMILIES!!!! 

Here are a few pics we took of Kelsey last week.
