I'm 3 Months Old!




Riesse turned 3 months old July 8th, and my how she has changed. She is almost double her birthweight...weighing in at 15lbs. She is the best baby I could ask for. I was sure I would be punished after my last few peaceful babies...but she is just as good. The best part of it all is...she is healthy! 4 of our 6 girls have had a disorder called vesicoureneral reflux (sp). Riesse does have it...but she has the slightest form...and only 1 kidney/ureter is affected. Translation...she is fine and we will not have to follow up with a urologist for her.
I am excited to watch her continue to grow, and to crawl, and to play, and to talk. I am so blessed to have had her come into my life, exactly when she did. When I was bathing her today I was remember how much I wanted her to be a boy, partly because of a prompting I had, but I am glad she is a girl. I cherish her so much more than I imagined I would.
Isn't she adorable!

She is beautiful. It is great to see your family doing so well... except for Kyle's foot.
