Get ready… She's almost one!

I’m in shock to be honest with you. My little girl… Who I was so worried about when she came into this world is becoming a self-sufficient, communicating and very happy little girl. She is still very clingy to me, but I have to be honest, I love the attention and love. The greatest development is that she has similar feelings for Daddy since he got back from his latest trip to China. They were napping in the same room this morning when Randy heard: “Hi Dada!” That has to make your heart melt.

Other little things that I’ve noticed this week: When Jordan sweats, the hair on the back of her neck curls in all kinds of directions. It’s sweet. I’m not sure if she’ll feel that it’s sweet when she’s older and trying to control her hair. For now, it’s sweet. Another thing: She loves to kiss. She loves to kiss me, her dad, her brother, other family members. She loves to kiss toys… Especially a new teddy bear she got from her uncle. It’s HUGE. She loves to roll on it, pull on it… And especially kiss it.

I went shopping today in advance of Jordan’s big day. I was suckered into buying this sweet doll that has an outfit that matches. I can’t wait to get Jordan into it. Isn’t that silly. Heck. I bought a new diaper bag and it is GIRLY. But I love it. I think another wonderful thing Jordan has given me is the acceptance of my inner girl. I’m not ready for these super girly stores that have gotten popular in your local mall. But I’m okay with pink these days.
