I definitely love having this time with her and am sad about the prospect of returning to work in 2 weeks. I am blessed though to have a daycare at my work where I will be able to check on her regularly. So, since my memory seems to have lapsed some since becoming pregnant and having Cadence I am going to document what she is doing at this stage. C wears size 3to 6 months clothes, size 2 diapers, and is definitely close to 15 pounds by my estimation. She eats 5 ounces every 3 hours with her last feeding around 10 at night. She <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">inconsistently</span> sleeps from 9 at night to 6 in the morning, but ha recently began waking up at 2 to 3 in the morning. She loves musical toys and looking in the mirror. She has also discovered her hands and how to use them to plays items in her mouth (though she still prefers her hands). She can reach with her hands to her feet. She is drooling more and has learned to blow raspberries! She is very vocal and likes to talk to her reflection in the mirror. So, since I am a pediatric physical therapist I am also going to include an assessment of her development- so you can tune out if too boring. She can hold her head 90 degrees in prone (on her stomach) for greater than 5 seconds with arms abducted to the side. She can inconsistently roll from prone to supine (on her back) and from supine to left side lying. She accepts about 25 percent of her weight through her legs in supported stance. She can track consistently horizontally track an object 180 degrees and 30 degrees vertically. She has no head lag and chin tuck with pull to sit. She has good head control and fair trunk control in supported ring sitting. So, if you have stuck through that I am sorry, but that is kind of what goes on in my head when playing with my daughter! So, now for the good part the pictures!<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicJ7-Mrn_NGITYz4DzH_b0ja6acXP4CZypGguxumUCv-0xj67HL6y5v87T4FGbleLJptpmzqe_31uqL1764Zw6LIZYfq6yj22JB5r-PxvQ3U9htSbtAsyU2Dfrjix_ozoVFZJkTtVvpw/s1600-h/Cadence+2-3+months+196.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

It was sad, but at the same time I know that he is in a much better place. </div><div> </div><div>Well, after this past month we need a little break...so we are taking a small vacation to Florida for a week! We've rented a condo down on the beach and will just have a nice relaxing vacation with a few other guests...my mom, sister, and Arabella. Needless to say we are really looking forward to having a break from the hustle and bustle of our everyday lives. </div><div> </div><div>Also this month, Josh has a committee meeting at school to determine when he will graduate with is Ph.D.! He is shooting for December, but it may not be until May 2010...either way, the light is at the end of the tunnel and coming up quickly! </div><div> </div><div>There hasn't been any baby news this month because we had to postpone our last Dr. visit because of the funeral, but it is rescheduled in a couple of weeks. Also, we will find out the sex of the baby at the end of the month at our 20-week ultrasound! That is going to be a great day!! We have 2 names picked out...one for a boy and one for a girl. We may or may not tell everyone in blogland after we find out the sex of the baby...we haven't decided yet.</div><div><br />I think that is pretty much all that has been happening this past month!</div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>Josh-n-Stephhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03801435989636896224noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1143682150112822869.post-58763674388312431652009-04-04T23:21:00.000-07:002009-04-04T21:23:05.118-07:00LifeOur life has been pretty uneventful since we last posted.<br />Stephanie's mom came up to visit us for Stephanie's birthday back on March 21. She brought our niece, Arabella, with her so that we could get some practice in before October!<br /><br />This past Friday we had another visit with the doctor. We got to see Baby Brown again! Here is Baby Brown's 12 week 5 day picture:<br /><br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 225px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5321039261654083634" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKfxpC3j2bQj6ioNi4Hx6PZ2jspI9SbhJHpqpMUZ41uyWFt4WTHHqOuc2nN-_dreGhl8RndbCYciAnaafxB9t5qULoZ_wWFFlWEUTT5TG-1ph0mMCp3zpNqViHWayU9hxBYjTf14modw/s320/IMG_0004.jpg" /><br />We were able to hear Baby Brown's heartbeat at a strong 153 beats/minute. We were also able to see the baby's hands and feet moving around! At least this time Baby Brown actually looked like a human...well except for this picture:<br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 245px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5321040000200243010" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPhqSB8QLUg2487Uy6AnDa1lctAT5-15-scCRFnSZ6bMrYfoUZTikYroY5fVETDi0boOxwlGHKbd0cX7_9yL1PBXYjAngQiqNaR2CDqN1RhCybqn_7eJMqkdvEMO442oKAa8FQphbzEA/s320/IMG.jpg" /> When we saw this picture on the screen, we all (the doctor included) started laughing, so she printed it out for us. <p>We still have around 6-7 weeks before we can look to determine the sex of the baby and that is when the real fun will begin....DECORATING! We already have the large pieces (crib, rocker, and changing table) for the nursery bought and put together. I know some people may call us crazy, but we like to get things done early, that is just our personality. </p><p>That has been our life these past few weeks.</p>Josh-n-Stephhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03801435989636896224noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1143682150112822869.post-23583047592376535762009-03-11T16:52:00.000-07:002009-03-12T07:03:08.724-07:00Getting Started<div align="left"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">So, I have been a secret blog addict for several months, and have been promising several friends that I would set up my own blog. But we needed a major life changing event to inspire us to form our own blog. That event was the discovery that Baby Brown will be joining our family in October 2009. We are really excited and awed by the oppurtunity that parenthood will bring us. So far we have been to the doctor twice. The first time I was about 7 weeks along and we were able to see the little peanut and its heartbeat.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><br /><br /></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 250px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5312103764838372530" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhNNdpRlvPyHdwvmlP3EohUiRnhdrqE88xzAOl4_5bngBBguiPLohwiFCQfkWJw5irjPc4OrpdxJxpoXs_borB_bKC6oLPgytivbzk0ogOBRz38Rxen9YAT4VJR_EXoi4xmRpNP9JEcQ/s320/IMG_0002.jpg" /><br /><p align="center"></span>7 Weeks<br /><br /></p><br /><p align="left"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">This past visit was today and I was about 9 weeks along and we were able to actually hear the heartbeat for the first time.

I am a pediatric physical therapist at LeBonheur Children's Medical</span> Center. I really love working with my wonderful coworkers and all of the cute children. Josh is currently working on his Ph.D. in medicinal chemistry. He is looking to graduate in either December 2009 or May 2010. Between working and attending Central Church with our awesome Sunday school class and staying at home with our 2 chihuahuas- Boscoe and Hammy- life is very good.</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Trebuchet MS;"></span><br /><br /><br /><br /></p>Josh-n-Stephhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03801435989636896224noreply@blogger.com9
