3 Months Old

This was Katherine's first Christmas. She met lots of new people who were loads of fun. She also learned how to use a sippy cup this month.

November 1, 2002

You had your 8-week checkup today. You are now 22.5 inches long and you weigh 10 pounds 5 ounces. Your head is now 37 centimeters around. You are in the 50^th percentile all the way around which means you are perfectly average. You got four shots today and they surprised you so you cried for a little bit but you stopped when I picked you up and nursed you. You are a very healthy little girl. Yay!

November 4, 2002

Today while you were playing on your mat, you grabbed Mr. Smiley Ball and tried to bring him to your mouth. You kept doing it, so I don’t think it was an accident. I showed you the key rattle and you held onto that and played with it for a minute or two. Also, last night at great grandma’s house, you were babbling and cooing to your grandma Susan. It was really cute!

November 18, 2002

I haven’t written much lately. Your grandpa Henry has come for a visit and you are enjoying spending time with him. You are now grabbing things like Mr. Smiley Ball and blankets and bringing them to your mouth. I caught you sucking on your arm yesterday and you are still sucking on your pointer finger of your right hand. You have been doing little baby sit-ups and working your abs like you are trying to sit up. You are getting so big and developing so fast! It is just amazing!! You have started drooling a lot and blowing spit bubbles. I bought some videos for you, baby Mozart, baby Bach and baby Einstein. You love the baby Bach one and you giggle every time Bard the Dragon comes on. It is really cute. I sit you in your car seat in front of the TV and I listen to you coo and kick and giggle. You are also kicking a lot now and with some strength. You smile at your daddy now when he comes home from work too. He loves that. We play a little game when he comes in the door after a hard day at work. I hold you up and make you “look” around the corner of the door so that he just sees your little head poking around the corner. It is soooo funny! You have outgrown some of your newborn clothes. It’s getting cold now so we are going to have to start bundling you up when we go out. I am looking for a job that will allow me to stay at home with you. I really don’t want to leave you with anyone else during the day because I love you and you are such a good baby!

Tonight, you were having tummy time and you started trying to flip yourself over onto your back. You have your right arm and leg totally straight and you are trying to flip yourself over using your bent left leg. You are holding your head up really well too! Well, you just sneezed yourself from your back to your side. If you arm had been straightened out you would have rolled on over to your back. Amazing!

November 2002

2 months old Katherine's grandfather, Henry came to visit from Illinois. They went to the zoo and enjoyed getting to know each other. We are still adjusting to having a new person in the house and enjoying it very much. We sit around and watch Katherine most of the time. We hardly turn on the TV anymore!! She does sleep a lot still though, so we are trying to watch as many movies as we can while she sleeps because when she gets mobile, I have a feeling that movies will be out of the question for a while.

The Smiling Baby

Today is the day I actually started your journal. You are 6 weeks old today and growing like a weed! You had a check up last week. You weighed 9 pounds and you were 22 inches long. You also got a shot that day, which you didn’t like very much, but you were a good baby and you only cried a little bit. You started sleeping in our bed snuggled between mommy and daddy last week. Mommy gets more sleep this way and you seem to be happier when you are cuddled next to me. You wake up in a wonderful mood.

You started smiling last week and now you smile the most for daddy. Last night, he had you propped up on his chest before we went to sleep and he was sticking his tongue out at you. Your face lit up and you just smiled and smiled at us. It was so cute and my heart just melted. You also started cooing last week. You will smile and make little sounds like “ah” and “ooh” sometimes they are little squeaks but last night mommy thinks she heard you make a little laughing sound. Every time you smile, mommy just wants to give you a great big hug because it makes her so happy! I love seeing you happy.

Grandma Susan and Great grandma come over to visit a lot. Aunt Carol bought the house next door to us and grandma is helping her get it nice enough to live in so she is over here almost every day. She loves to hold you but you are starting to get to where you don’t want anyone but mommy and daddy to love on you. Mommy feels very needed and loved. J

You started sitting in your swing last week. You will sit in there and it rocks you to sleep. You seem to enjoy it. You also really like laying on the floor and looking at a toy that we named “Mr. Smiley ball”. You try to knock him over and you succeed most times you try. When we lay you on your belly for tummy time, you try to crawl. You are lifting you head up and looking around and if I give you something to push off of, you can propel yourself a few inches. You will be rolling over and crawling in no time.

Mommy is still on maternity leave from the credit union so she spends all day with you, feeding, changing and holding you. You finally decided that you like your sling so mommy is able to get a little more work done around the house while still holding you and cuddling.

You have started to look up at me while you are nursing and your eyes will crinkle up and you will give me a big gummy grin. I love it when you do that. You have really started to become more aware of your surroundings too. Daddy thinks it is funny when you stare at the blinds and the ceiling fan, which you do a lot.

I love you very much and I can hardly believe that it has already been 6 weeks since you were born. Daddy left for a business trip today and he will be back on Saturday so it’s just you and me for now.

October 16, 2002

Errand day

Well, Daddy is in Maryland for business and won’t be home until Saturday. You stayed awake until 5:30 on Monday nursing and playing. You were in a great mood but mommy was pretty tired. I suspect you are starting your 6-week growth spurt.

I had a dentist appointment today and I took you with me. You fussed a little bit and the receptionist held you while I got my tooth filled. It was a glorious day, sunny and about 65 degrees. I dressed you in a cute pink striped footy outfit and we left for the day. We came home from the dentist and took a short nap together then we went to the chiropractor and the toy store for some baby shopping. I bought a bedrail for the bed and a backup Mr. smiley ball for emergencies. You have been sleeping most of the day and I think that you may have a slight cold because you are very snotty and you keep sneezing. You even blew snot all over the arm of your little outfit so I had to change you. I’m definitely a mommy now; your snot doesn’t gross me out.

We played a little bit on the floor and you were very interested in the closet light. You are becoming more alert and responsive every day! Last night, you finally noticed your mobile. You Watched those animals go around and around and your seemed very interested. You also like the mirror in your crib and when you hit it (accidentally at this point), it laughs or plays “you are my sunshine” you smile and seem to like it. I got down on the floor with you and played the tongue game and you just smiled like a crazy person. Then you started cooing and I was imitating you. We were having quite the conversation with you making funny faces after I would answer your coos like you were trying to figure out what to say next. It was funny! Then you made a coo that sounded just like you were saying “a egg”…I couldn’t’ stop laughing but I imitated you and you gave me a huge gummy grin.

You ate for a while and now you are sitting in your swing while I type this. Well, now you are sucking on your fist so I guess it is time for the milk train to pull into the station. You are so cute when you nurse. You will pull off and grin, lock eyes with me and then pop back on while you are still grinning. It just melts my heart. You also “pet” my side with one arm while you are eating and pound my chest with the other hand. I don’t know what that is all about but it is darling. When you are done eating you pull off, with your eyebrows raised and your lips pursed and your eyes closed. You then lay there in the crook of my arm with your eyes half open looking like a drunken sailor with milk dripping off of your chin.

We just finished your bath and you are a little bit ticked off at me. I washed your hand and you stuck it right into your mouth. Suffice to say, you don’t like the taste of soap. You screamed and cried until I was able to get you out of your tub, into a diaper and onto a breast. Now you are fine. You had your first real tears & it just broke my heart. All I wanted to do was make it all better.

Let me fill you in on what you look like right now. Your baby hair is falling out in the back and you are pretty much bald on top so your hair looks like an old mans. The rest of your hair is about an inch long all over and it is dark brown, straight and fine, like mine. Your skin is pale and pink and I just noticed that your thighs and arms are chunking up; you are still long and thin though. Your eyes have been dark blue since birth but today I noticed that the outside of your cornea is turning brown. I’m going to bet that you will have brown eyes just like your mommy and daddy. Your feet are long and thin with long toes. I think that you have your grandma Susan’s feet. You have a flat soft little bottom that I just love to pat on when you aren’t wearing a diaper. We call this “air time” and you love it. I’m always afraid that you are going to have an accident though. You still keep your hand in little fists most of the time but they open and relax when you are sleepy. You usually will stick your pinky out. You also have a birthmark on your neck. We hardly get to see it since your head is still pretty wobbly but I noticed it a few weeks ago. It’s a bright red mark and I thought I had scratched you somehow but the Dr. said that it is a “strawberry” and that it will get bigger and then fade away when you are about 4 years old.

Have I mentioned what a dainty little girl you are? I am just kidding of course. You just let out a belch to rival that of your fathers and you also fill up your diaper with an explosive poop. I’m surprised you didn’t just vibrate right out of my hands. Hahahaaa.

You are sitting up on my chest while I type this one handed and Tallia is sitting in my lap. You are holding your head up really well. You just pushed yourself up with your arms and looked me right in the face. Too cute! You are practicing turning you head side to side too. With all of this upper body strength, you will be crawling soon and then mommy and daddy will be in trouble!

October 20, 2002

This morning I woke up with you next to me and Tallia behind you. I asked daddy to come and watch you while I took a shower. I could hear him laughing so I figured you were in a good mood. When I came out of the shower, he asked me if you had ever stared at your toes before and I said no. I sat down with you two on the bed and sure enough, you were staring intently at your toes. I think you were making the connection that they belong to you. Ha Ha! Soon you will be sticking them in your mouth & sucking on them. This picture is of your daddy. He is giving you the first bath that he has ever given to a baby. He washed your hand and you immediately stuck it in your mouth. You cried because it tasted bad and the bath ended shortly after that.

We are off to grandmas house for Sunday dinner.

October 24, 2002

You turned 7 weeks old on Monday and you have become more of a mommy’s girl lately. You constantly want to be held by me and you will sometimes let daddy hold you too. You have started to make your needs clearer by crying a bit more. I was nursing you today and we were “conversing” (exchanging coos). I made an mmmmmmmmmm sound and you smiled and gave your version of a laugh, kind of a shriek then a sigh with a huge grin. You are making more efforts to touch the toys on your gym and in your crib. You seem to be in the best mood when you are getting your diaper changed. You are pushing up more when you have tummy time and you are locking your legs, which means you can “stand” on us when we hold you. Finally, you took a bottle from your daddy today. You didn’t eat much but you also didn’t fuss. That’s progress!!

October 29, 2002

You are now 8 weeks old!! I can hardly believe how quickly the time is passing and how much bigger and more advanced you are. You are standing lots (with our help of course) and you enjoy it when we bounce you up and down. You are also most happy on your changing table where you stare at us and giggle and laugh. You spent half an hour in your crib today while I took a shower and you occupied yourself by staring at the mirror and your mobile. You have figured out that you can make the mirror play music when you hit it so you have taken to beating that thing with all of your might, only to be delighted by a tune. You have also started thumping your heels into the mattress of your crib, very forcefully and loudly. This also sets the music off which you seem to enjoy.

Grandma came over last night and you guys were playing. She makes the funnies faces at you! Well, I don’t know what you did but you laughed out loud at her and gave her a big grin! She almost cried she was so excited! I told her that when you smile at me like that, I could just hug you to death! I feel the biggest surge of love when we connect like that!.

You are able to see farther now which means that you are looking all around, all of the time, since there is so much new stuff to see. It makes nursing difficult, since you get so distracted, but we are working it out. This morning in bed, you woke up when your daddy’s alarm went off at 6:30. You must be a morning person because you were smiling at your daddy and doing a little dance in the bed (personally, I think you were pooping your pants but whatever). Daddy was happy to see you smiling and I think it made his day a little brighter.

So, what have you been up to this week? Well, in summary, you have perfected your social smiles, you are seeing farther, you are using your legs more and more, you are sucking your fist and you took your first bottle…kind of.

October 31, 2002

It is 12:42 on Halloween morning and I am typing this as you lie in your crib delighting in your black and white pictures, cooing and stomping your feet to make your mirror play music. You are just cracking yourself up in there. I’m sleepy but I love to listen to you “talk”.

You were very animated today. You are cooing more each day and interacting more and more with us. It is very gratifying. You have picked up the habit of rubbing your eye with your free hand while nursing until it is bright red…that is not my favorite because I keep thinking that there is something wrong with your eye. I have concluded, however, that it is just a thing you do. Maybe because you have discovered your hands and that they are attached to you. You still spend a lot of time bopping yourself in the face with them but you also seem to reach out to objects with more intent.

We went to the grocery store today and we also went to our first “new mothers meeting” at the Black Dog Café on lake Ella. For some reason, no other moms showed up though so I enjoyed my coffee and played with you for a while and then we headed home. You were in a great mood today! The “haaaaa Boo!” game makes you smile and you actually cooed, “boo” at me tonight but I think it was an accident. It is waaayy too early for you to be talking! Well, you need to be picked up now. Goodnight, hopefully.

September 2002-Our Family Grows

Katherine Taylor Wright

September 2^nd 2002, Happy Labor Day!

It’s Time!

At 4:41 am. My water broke. The popping sound woke me up and I rushed to the bathroom. Somehow, I managed to not leak at all on the carpet or the bed. I called the hospital to find out what I needed to do and they said I had about 2 hours to get to the hospital. I was feeling a little bit crampy so I posted to the parentsplace message board that I was off to have my baby and I woke daddy up to tell him that it was time. I took a shower, shaved my legs (couldn’t go into labor with hairy legs!) and finished packing the labor bags. I was so excited that we were finally going to meet you that my knees were wobbly! We got into daddy’s car (the green grand marquis) and left for the hospital.

When we got to the hospital, the nurse was very nice and she took us right to our room. We were settled in our room by 6:20 and my nice light contractions started to intensify a little bit but I was still pretty comfortable. I was hooked up to a monitor that printed out your heartbeat and my contractions on a piece of paper. My contractions looked like rolling hills and your heartbeat went down with each contraction then went back up. Your heartbeat was a little bit sporadic so I had to keep hooked up to the monitors through the whole labor and I had to keep rolling around in bed to help increase your blood flow so your little heart would beat better. Moving around was a bummer because it made the contractions worse which meant that I was very uncomfortable.

Labor Pains

Daddy was very helpful during labor. He rubbed my back, when I let him, got me ice chips, wiped my forehead with a cool cloth and coached me through the breathing which really helped to keep me calm when the contractions got worse. Daddy and I were both watching the monitor and each time I had a contraction, the monitor would tell us how hard it was. I had to stop watching because just when I thought a contraction couldn’t get any worse, it did! Daddy watched it for me and he would tell me when the contraction was going down. That made mommy feel much better!

When I was about 4 centimeters dilated, your grandma Susan showed up to the hospital and helped daddy keep me calm and comfortable. I told daddy that I might want to get an epidural, which would help ease the pain of the contractions (which were getting worse). Daddy asked me if I really wanted a needle in my back since I am so afraid of needles, and I decided that no, I didn’t want a needle in my back. Daddy is so supportive! So we kept on laboring without any drugs.

I hit 8 centimeters around 3pm and the contractions got stronger and stronger. I was very uncomfortable now and I even threw up twice. I started to get the urge to push at around 4pm and the Doctor came in to check my progress. I still had a little bit left to dilate so they let me sit up which helped to get me dilated the rest of the way. Let me add that I had a steady stream of ow, ow, ow, ow, owwwww’s going this entire time.

Here She Comes!

Well, the doctor finally told me that I could start pushing at 4:10 but your heart rate was very sporadic now so we had to get you out quickly. Mommy was very tired since she stayed up until midnight the night before and had been laboring for almost 12 hours and my pushing was not very effective. The doctor decided that mommy needed help getting you out so he attached a vacuum extractor to your head to help pull you out. Grandma Susan, Great Grandma Pearl and Daddy were all in the room when I started pushing. I pushed and pushed and daddy was very helpful and encouraging. Mommy did not like her doctor very much because he was scaring her by saying that we needed to get you out fast. Finally, you were born at 4:27 pm on Labor Day.

The Meeting

The Doctor put you on my chest and I got to look at you for a few minutes. I don’t remember what I said but It was probably something like “Hi Katherine”! I know, very original right? Daddy was crying because he loved you so much and he was worried about you being born without any problems you came out crying and you were very red. The nurses wiped you off, swaddled you in a blanket and gave you a tiny hat. They then handed you to daddy so that the Doctor could finish taking care of mommy. Grandma Susan got to hold you and so did Great Grandma Pearl and Great Grandpa Lyle. Finally the doctors were finished stitching up mommy and they left our new family so I could breastfeed you. You ate like a champ and your eyes were wide open. You were looking at mommy and daddy a lot. Mommy was happy that you were so beautiful and healthy. Your apgar scores were 8 and 9.

The nurses came in and it was time for you to go to the nursery to get a bath and to have some tests run. The nurses gave you to daddy who carried you to the nursery. The nursery nurse did lots of tests on you! They did a hearing test, they put ointment in your eyes, they gave you a shot of vitamin K, they drew blood, they measured and weighed you, they cleaned up your umbilical cord and they gave you a bath. You weighed 7 pounds, 6 ounces and you were 20 inches long. Daddy took lots of pictures and you didn’t look very happy in any of them! Mommy took a shower while all of this was going on and she got settled into her recovery room. At about 6pm, the nurses and daddy brought you to the recovery room in your bassinet to spend the night with us. We held you, fed you and rocked you to sleep. We just couldn’t get enough of staring at you and holding you. You were so perfect and beautiful and we fell in love with you right away.

You slept most of the first two days but when you woke up, you stared at mommy and daddy a lot. We had a few visitors to the hospital and we got lots of flowers from our friends welcoming you to the world. You stayed in our room most of the time and daddy stayed in the hospital with us. Daddy changed your first diapers and we thought it was pretty funny when you went poop because you made a lot of noise. It was hilarious all of the farting that you did. Mommy was still very tired from giving birth to you so we had the nurses take you to the nursery when you woke up at 4am but they brought you back at 6am to eat. The nurse said you were a very good baby and that you liked to be rocked a lot.

September 4th 2002

Going Home

On September 4^th, you were ready to go home. We left the hospital and brought you to your new home at 1746 Beechwood Circle North in Tallahassee Florida. This is the first house that mommy and daddy owned. We brought you into the house and showed you the nursery that we spent so much time setting up for you and we introduced you to Tallia, the cat.

You slept in the bassinet next to our bed for the first week that you were home and then you started to sleep in your crib. You were such a good baby. You hardly ever cried, you breast-fed very well and you slept a lot. In fact, most nights, you went to bed around 1am and you woke up at 4 and at 6 am to eat. As a newborn, you didn’t do too much but you were healthy and happy and we spent most of our time just watching you and looking at your tiny toes, long feet, tiny hands and adorable little face.

September 17th 2002

Off to the Pediatrician

Today was your first visit to the pediatrician. You were 2 weeks old and the doctor wanted to see how well you had grown. We met with Kathy, the nurse and she weighed and measured you and checked to make sure you were healthy. You grew 1 and a half inches and you gained a pound. You are now 8 pounds, 6 ounces, and 21 and a half inches long. You had a good checkup and the nurse said you were very healthy. Mommy told the nurse that you got gas after you ate which made you very uncomfortable but the nurse said that is normal and that I could rub your belly if it seemed to help. I spent the next month rubbing your little belly because you would get very uncomfortable from gas bubbles and you would wiggle and cry until you were able to get some relief.

September 18^th 2002

The games people play

Mommy and daddy wanted to make you happy so we started singing to you and playing with you. Your favorite song is the huggle buggle song. It is sung to the tune of London Bridge and it goes like this:

Huggle buggle I love you,

I love you,

I love you,

Huggle buggle I love you,

My sweet baby.

Mommy also played a game with you called the Katherine Kisses game. She made a funny face and said…”I’ve got some Katherine Kisses, coming your way” and then she would kiss you all over. Your face would light up and it was very cute.

Daddy holds you and sticks his tongue out at you. You started to mimic him and you stick your tongue out at him. You have started sticking your tongue out at everyone.

When you are breast-feeding you make some cute faces. You pull off when you are full and purse your little lips while raising your eyebrows. It is the cutest thing in the world. One night, when you were about a week old, mommy was feeding you and singing the “dilly dilly” lullaby to you. She started crying because she loved you so much and wanted you to stay safe and tiny forever. Feeling you in her arms and looking at that sweet little face is the best thing in the world. I want to never put you down, which is good because you love to be held.

I'm a mom now. How about that?
