6 months ago.....



Simply a Miracle

This past Monday, Natalie had her 6 month check-up and 6 month shots. She is 14 lbs 13 ozs!! 25% percentile I can't believe that she has gained 4 lbs since March 30th! She is 23 1/2 inches long which is below 3% percentile. She now on the charts! Her head is 17 1/2 which is rather large for a baby this size, our pediatrician is concerned about her head size, so we will be getting a catscan done to check to make sure if everything is ok. While she was in the NICU, she had some brain bleeds but they had cleared up before we left. She did really good at the Doctor, the only time she cried was when she got her shots! WOW! She has some vocal cords. It was the first time, I have heard her cry that loud. I felt so bad for her. As soon as they were done, I picked her up and held her tight, she immediately calmed down and we headed for home. I LOVE being a mommy to such a sweet little baby. She has definitely been a life changing experience for Erich and I.


Waiting to see the doctor.


Cute as can be!


I love her expression in this picture.
