Bottles, Dedication, And Doctor

This has been a very eventful week. Last Wednesday we gave MaKenna a bottle for the first time. Zach was super excited and grinning from ear to ear b/c he was getting to feed her. I cried.
She is doing great with it, if anyone but me gives it to her. We discovered this on Friday when She and I tried to run a few errands to get ready for her baby dedication this weekend. We made a few stops then we tried to venture to the commissary. We made it inside got a  buggy and she got very fussy. I thought no big deal I will go to the and sit on the couched and give her a bottle. Not what happened. She refused a bottle by screaming with people walking in and looking at me. So we went back to the car and I nursed her while we scorched in the sunlight. Everything seemed a little better then she started screaming again. I changed her in the car and I don't know if I have mentioned this before but she doesn't much poo unless she has her diaper off. Which I don't much blame her who wants poo all over there backside. So every time you change her that is when she goes and let me tell you there is projection to it we are talking on walls, diaper genie etc. Well she decided to go in the car with her diaper off it got on the seat and she was aiming for my face but I was to quick with another diaper for that. She continued to have a melt down with sweat beads pouring off of her. I told her fine we would just go home not a big deal I will do this when I have help. We got in the car cranked up the air conditioner and she was fine. I told myself I can't give up b/c I am going to have to do this by myself for a year. So she and I had a talk and we made a few other errands without a hitch. We were so proud of ourselves.

Her first bottle

On Sunday We had MaKenna's baby dedication.  We are so blessed MaKenna has so many people who love her and came to support us. It meant so much to us and we are so thankful to everyone who came. After church everyone came to the house for lunch and we had a great time.






   





Today we had our one month Doctors appointment. She is still perfect as we already new of course. She weighed 10lbs 6oz and was still 20.5in long. So she had gained weight but still hasn't grown any I have a feeling she is going to be short like her momma and still love to eat. Bless her heart.

  1. KaKenna is still beautiful which I knew she would be. You're going to have a few rough moments when Zach is gone but you can do it. And of course you will always have plenty of help. LOL The photo shots are great. Love them
