Rolling Over!!!

Fiona can roll over!!! She can roll from her stomach onto her back. She has been doing it since the 1st of August, when she was 3 weeks old. I took this video of her rolling over a few days later.

Well that didn't work. Sorry but I can't seem to upload the video, so here is a link to the video where you can watch my very talented daughter roll over.

Getting Caught Up with Photos.

So sorry, it is truly amazing how much time you don't have when you have a child. I have neglected our blog a lot, but I am sure you will understand. So this post is all about getting caught up with photos (hence the post name).

Holding up her head, Fi has been doing for awhile now, this picture was taken when she was 3 weeks old.

This is one of my girls sleeping poses, she loves to have her arms and hands up by her face, just like her Daddy. I call this one superbaby!!!

Fi and her Daddy sleeping.

I love this picture, I took Fiona over to my grandmothers house and this is what they did!

Gotta Love the Belly!!

I had to get some really cute pictures of Fi in her Tulip Dress. Gotta Love it!!!

Holding herself up on her Daddy's chest. She likes this spot a lot.

Grace watching Fiona.

That oh so sweet spot.

Well it looks like we found that sweet spot, you know that one spot that the baby loves to sleep on. It is on your chest curled up in a ball. Here are some pictures of Fiona in her sweet spot.

Bath Time!!!

Well, I can tell you for sure that my little Fi does not like bath time. We gave her, her first bath on Monday the 12th of July. Funny thing is she cried all through the bath but when it was time to wash her hair, boy she got quite fast. She really liked getting her hair washed and rinsed.

Ahh now it is all over with!

Visitors and Coming Home

We had lot of visitors at the hospital and at home, everyone was so excited to meet Fi. Here are a few of the photos we took of Fi's visitors.

We got to take Fi home on Saturday the 10th. Getting her into the car seat was by far the worst thing we had to deal with (it was pretty bad), we were so afraid we were hurting her. She was so tiny in the seat that we were afraid that she would fly forward if we had to stop suddenly. I don't think I have ever seen Mike drive so slowly before.

Welcome Little One!!!

Well, I know it has taken me a while to post - sorry about that - I didn't realize how tired I would be after bringing Fi home. It has taken awhile for me to get semi-used to the non-existent sleeping schedule. Where to begin; well we went in to be induced Thursday July 8th, Mike and my sister Ashley were in the delivery room with me.

It was a long day (and yes if you ask I did decided on having the epidural, of course this was decided when I was actually in labor) 13 hours in labor and just when everyone had left to get dinner and some rest for the evening it was time for Fi to come. Poor Mike was frantically calling everyone to get back up to the hospital. Fiona Dawn Baker made her appearance at 8:44 p.m. on Thursday July 8th, 2010. She weighed 7 lbs 11 oz and measured 20" in length.

I wasn't sure if Mike was going to cut the cord, but he did, I know he thought it would be gross and wasn't sure if he was going to be able to hang in during the whole labor but he did great. I know he was more amazed during the whole thing than anything else.

I couldn't believe how much hair my girl has, she had a thick head of dark brown hair from the start. I am still hoping that the red from me will show up, but of course she is beautiful just the way she is.

Almost 39 weeks!

Well I had my (hopefully) last doctors appointment today, and looks like we are ready to go!!! I am at least 2 centimeters dilated and 50% effaced, we are going to be induced on Thursday the 8th!!! Hopefully by that afternoon we will have a new Baker enter the family!
Wednesday may be the last good nights sleep we get for quite some time, but this is so totally worth it!
