SUMMER♥

Aug 16, 2009 02:12am (EST)

hello everyone...geez it seems like it's been forever. Javiana is 18 months now. 18 months and 11 days to be exact and boy does she keep me busy. Such a happy funny little burst of energy. Every day she does something new and everyday I am just amazed at how little my baby girl was, and how old she is getting. She is so smart. She is still tiny skinny but tall. 21 lbs and 32 in, but she sure doesnt seem to let that stop her from doing anything! J feels that she can do and pick up anything! Things that weigh more than she does, and she can. I am just amazed by her. Our summer adventures have taught us that she truly will be a beach bum and she loves it so, the water, the sand, the shells, and she fears nothing!
We went to visit the hospital 2wks ago. I love to go there, I want J to know these people I think of often and always. The nurses on the floor where I stayed for 9 long wks, the NICU nurses that took excellent care of her. I just love them so. They gave me hope, they couldnt wait to see my little girl, and showed love to the both of us. I am eternally greatful. The bittersweet part of it all is how I am never certain on who will be there and who will not. There is one nurse I would love to catch up with. She was my admitting nurse and was there for me all the way through. She gave me her address and sometimes I think to write to her, send her photos, she unfortunately is usually not there when we decide to visit. I don't want to seem creepy, or anything though. I;ve waited so long, Im just not that bubbly outgoing person I guess, lol, idk.
Nothing else is really new, just in search of a job. Oh this economy is terrible!..The share union is in DC this year correct?..I truly would love to make it one year. I love reading others stories and how everyone is there for one another. I've been trying to catch up, reading some happy stories some sad. But noone ever ceases to amaze me in the support we share with one another. God bless you all, I will update sooner!! I hope you can see the pictures!

    A GIRL ON THE RUN!!

    Apr 24, 2009 04:55am (EST)

    Javiana is now walking!!!!
    It seems to have happened so fast and i am such a geek and so excited, lol...
    She actually just really started yesterday takin more than a step or 2 and now she seems to be trying to run:-)
    oh the fun that is on the way..
    So she has an appointment at the growth and nutrition clinic at the end of may. For a lil girl that does not gain much weight that sure seems like a ways away.

    MI PRINCESA

    Apr 02, 2009 05:34am (EST)

    Javiana is 2 days shy of 14 months! She is still working on the walking but I think she just gets nervous...she stares at me and waits for me to give her my hand, if I don't she will crawl to me. I am proud of her though she tries so hard and she will get there!
    The thing I do not like is when people ask why she is 14months and cannot walk, number 1-babies do things on their own time, number 2-she was premature and does fantastic so back off!! lol
    Well she had a doctors appointment today and it could have gone better, she lost a lil more weight. She is quite tall and has grown an inch and sum but she is such an active lil girl! They took her blood to make sure that her thyroid and everything else is working the way that it should, i hope so!
    I was given a referral to a nutritionist for her and i requested a g.i consult for she gets severly constipated and the miralax does not seem to help.
    I looked up some things online though and went to the supermarket tonight to grab some carnation instant breakfast to add a lil bit of flavorful calories in with her 'bubbbbaaaas'
    She is doing so well though and with the warm weather creepin its way into New england we have been havin so much fun going to the parks and we went this past saturday to a zoo in rhode island! She loovveedd it! not as much as i love seeing her smile tho im sure...i love my lil happy girl sooo much!!!

    hope everyone is well!
    <3 Jen
