Just checkin in!

Just want to say Hi to everyone!!  It has been awhile since I have been here since Isabelle arrived!  I have been reading some posts but by the time I go to write something either the baby, the dog or the dh needs something!!  Things are going great and Isabelle is more adorable every day!  She is more alert now and focusing on objects.  She even giggled yesterday - it was so cute (probably just a nerve or muscle twitch but it was cute nonetheless!)!!  Breastfeeding is going good but it is very demanding!!!  Sleep is seriously lacking!  It is hard to get going in the morning but once I am up I am fine.  I hope everyone else is doing great with your pregnancies and babies!  Enjoy the months before the birth - I look at Isabelle every day and think "So that's who was in my belly!" And I really enjoy thinking she was in there for nine straight months and I am glad I rubbed my belly a lot!!  She is such a sweetie!!  Best of luck to everyone!!

Lisa!!!!!

So glad you and Isabelle are doing so wonderful! The milestones are the best aren't they? I absolutely loved it when my babies would do something new. And definitely can't wait for Brayden to welcome us and show us all his milestones!! I do hope you get some more sleep! She will come around and let mommy sleep and the first time you sleep through the night you will wake up thinking someone kidnapped her! I felt like that! I ended up just laying there waiting until they  woke up! They had the biggest smile on their faces!! It makes you love them even more when you see them wake up happy after a good nights rest for the both of you! Not that you don't love them til the end of time now, but when both of you are refreshed it's such a great feeling!!

Keep up the updates! You Shelia, Perty and 4boys1girl are a true inspiration to all of us!!

XOXO
