  • Dear Sweet Pea,

    It's been so long since I've written to you!  I'm sorry.  Things have been so crazy around here lately.  You got your first cold on February 6th and that caused your first ear infection about 2weeks afterward.  We have you on video still laughing and smiling though!  ...just not when we were giving you medicine!  You gagged every time we put a little bit of amoxicillin in your mouth!

    You're growing so much.  You're over 5 months old, you weigh about 14.5lbs and you're 26 inches tall!  We're working on getting you to sleep unswaddled... that's not the most pleasant thing.  We're making it though.  Oh, Aidyn.  You've changed so much since Christmas.  We took you last week to get your picture made at the mall and you did so well!  We got some really good pictures.  I'll put some of my favorites in here:
                                    
                               

      
    Something funny about you: you are  s l o w  at waking up.  We leave  you in your bed for a good 20minutes after you wake up... daddy picked you straight up when you woke up this afternoon and you cried for about 10 minutes!  You're just like him in that respect...  you two hate to wake up in a hurry!

    We started trying to feed you rice cereal at just about 5months... you've had applesauce, peas, peaches and tonight you tried bananas.  You're SO funny about eating. You try to suck in off the spoon and usually just make me spill it everywhere!  It's a good thing you get your bath not long after supper.  You LOVE to watch us eat.  Lately, every time I drink anything, you want to taste it.  Your new favorite thing is to sip out of my cup.
     
                              I love you so much.

    It's so hard for me to believe that you're going to grow up to be a beautiful, independent woman someday.  It scares me to think that someday you'll tell me that you hate me.  I've been thinking about that a lot lately.  .... and about how much I love you.  I can't even express it...  You're my heartbeat...

    Well love, daddy's sleeping and I should be too.
    I can't wait to see you in the morning!

    Sweet dreams, love.
