Audrey's Parenting Journal for Aurora <3
 

OK, so Aurora is sleeping in her nursery like a little angel so while I finally have some time to myself, I'm going to try a parenting journal . :)

Aurora Avery was born October 15, 2010 weighing 7 lbs, 2 oz, and measuring 19 inches.

We just got home from the hospital today so things have started to go back to normal...or, at least as normal as possible. :bleh:

Here is Aurora in her coming home outfit:

awh she is so beautiful! Congrats

Re: Audrey's Parenting Journal for Aurora <3
 

She looks an absolutely beautiful baby and I hope you have a wonderful time bringing her up to be a lovely little girl :hug:

Re: Audrey's Parenting Journal for Aurora <3
 

Thank you all! :hug:

Guile-She has blue eyes :)

Thanks again everyone! Today is day two of being home (or, you could consider it the first full day), and Aurora is just wonderful. She got up a few times during the night but when she did she usually just fell right back asleep after I rocked her.

She LOVES being rocked. She usually falls asleep within ten minutes when she's rocked. And I enjoy rocking her and singing to her. :) It's good bonding time!

You have a beautiful baby. I am pregnant at 14 and in a tough situation. Is it hard to go through labour and then start to raise a kid?

Re: Audrey's Parenting Journal for Aurora <3
 

I kept a pregnancy diary with Dante, I still write in it from time to time about milestones and what not. Its a great idea to keep a journal of your little ones accomplishments, they grow up so quickly!

Re: Audrey's Parenting Journal for Aurora <3
 

Aurora was very fussy last night. I'm not entirely sure why...she would cry and even when I would pick her up or cuddle her, or feed her she would still cry. She finally stopped, but she was crying for a good hour nonstop. She did the same thing again an hour and a half later. I didn't get much sleep, but at least I was awake for something important!

Re: Audrey's Parenting Journal for Aurora <3
 

First of all she's beautiful. Second of all you seem to have a really great camera. :)

Aww. I remember when my cousin had her baby, she told me that she thinks that infants should come into the world with a knowledge of what sleeping in on weekends are. xD

I just thought I'd share that with you =] Thought you might enjoy it. =D

Yah! Guile approves this thread then! Yah for cute little Nordic babies! Wait is she Nordic or Keltic?

Re: Audrey's Parenting Journal for Aurora <3
 

Thank you all so much!!! :hug:

Haha yay I'm glad you approve! lol
What is Nordic and Keltic? lol

Aurora had a bit of the sneezies today. She probably sneezed 12 or 13 times. Like a worried mom, I asked my mom and googled and even called the doctor to make sure she wasn't sick.
They all told me the same thing: it's normal because babies breathe through their nose for the first couple of months. My doctor also told me that they sneeze to clear their lungs and nasal passages of residual amniotic fluid...so I guess I was worrying for nothing! lol

Aurora is 2 weeks old today! I want to have a party...a sleeping party! :haha:
Sorry I haven't updated in a while. Aurora has been keeping me busy :p

Awwwwww ^^

Give her a kiss and a cuddle from us here at T.H. ^^

Re: Audrey's Parenting Journal for Aurora <3
 

I will, thank you all!
I am getting a little worried, because today Aurora didn't just spit up, she threw up. Twice. Like, projectile vomit. I'm about to call the doctor if she doesn't get better. :(

Re: Audrey's Parenting Journal for Aurora <3
 

Re: Audrey's Parenting Journal for Aurora <3
 

Thank you! It was scary, but when I called the doctor, he told me that her body could have unexpectedly rejected the food, or she ate too much in too little time. It stopped, and hasn't come back, but if it does I'm suppose to call the doctor again.

Re: Audrey's Parenting Journal for Aurora <3
 

Re: Audrey's Parenting Journal for Aurora <3
 

Awww, I hope she gets well soon :hug:

Re: Audrey's Parenting Journal for Aurora <3
 

Thank you guys! The vomiting never came back, I'm happy to announce! haha

And I'm so excited!!! We just scheduled a trip for me, Aurora, my mom, and my sister to visit my aunt and uncle in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan at their cottage in March 2011, just around the time that Aurora is 5 months! It's going to be so much fun!!
