First Halloween and Thanksgiving!

Kelly Anne is growing up so fast! It's hard to believe she will be 6 months old next weekend! Her first Halloween was fun, she was such a cute bumblebee and ladybug! It is Thanksgiving week and we are getting geared up for our road trips to Flemingsburg and Northern Kentucky!
Tomorrow Kelly goes for her 6 month check-up and shots. Can't wait to see how much she has grown since her 4 month appointment. She started eating rice cereal this month and enjoys eating from a spoon. Veggies will be on her menu soon!

5 months old!?!?!

Can you believe Kelly Anne is already 5 months old? Doug and I can't! She is growing each day and is really fun. She loves standing in our laps (us holding under her arms of course) and bouncing. She is laughing and smiling a lot more. Her neck problem (not turning her head to the left) is much better, the physical therapist released her since she can now turn from side to side while on her back and tummy! She had her first x-ray today, we visited the pediatric plastic surgeon at UK Clinic. They wanted to take and x-ray her skull to see if the flat side of her head had shifted anything inside. He said the photos looked good, and to keep her off of the flat side as much as possible before the next appointment in December.
Kelly is quite the sleeper! She sleeps around 10 hours a night! Very nice for her Daddy who gets her up in the mornings while I am already at school. :) She's a good little girl! We think we are going to keep her!

She's like a weed!

It's been awhile! Baby Kelly is growing like a weed! Last month she grew out of her newborn clothes and diapers. :( Sad day putting them away. Where does the time go?? She got her 2 month shots at the end of July and was a champ. We found a wonderful babysitter named Jaclyn who will watch Kelly on Tuesdays and Thursdays this school year. My mom will watch her on Mondays and Wednesdays and Doug will stay home with her and work from home on Fridays. Once all that was settled I had to get to school and set up my classroom. Before I knew it-time for school! I just finished up my first 3 day week. Looking forward to a 4 day week next week. Don't like leaving the little one, but she is in good hands. She is starting to get on a nap schedule to help her sitters out during the day. She is still sleeping around 7.5 hours a night. Her personality is really showing right now, as she laughs & coos at us. So cute! We had her first photo shoot last month, it went pretty well when she wasn't sticking her tongue out! She is still visiting the physical therapist for her neck problems. She is doing great with her neck exercises and her range of motion has drastically improved! Hope everyone is well, come see us!

1 month already?!

Can you believe Kelly Anne is already one month old? Doug and I can't believe it! She had her 1 month doctor's appointment and she now weighs 9 lbs. 7 oz. and is 22 1/8 inches long! We have had a busy month visiting with family and friends and getting settled in at home. We have also gotten to celebrate anniversaries and birthdays. This past weekend we took our first road trip. Doug and I went to the Reds game with Beth and Brad and dropped Kelly off with her grandparents in Northern Kentucky. We hope July is just as fun! :)
I hope you have gotten a chance to meet Kelly, if not then come and visit!

Come see us!

Kelly Anne is getting settled and so are we! She is such a good baby and we are loving every minute of being parents. We love having visitors, come see us!

KELLY IS HERE!

Kelly Anne Grieme was born last night-Thursday, May 27, 2010 at 9:15pm. She was 21 inches long! She weighed 8 pounds & 2 ounces. She has a full head of dark, straight hair!

The time has come!

After long discussions with the doctor yesterday Doug and I (with her input) have decided to induce labor. We are going to the hospital tonight at 9:00 and will try and get some sleep before they start getting things rolling in the morning.
My doctor should get there at around 8:00 in the morning and we will play the waiting game some more! :) Doug and I are getting really good at waiting!! Regardless, Kelly Anne will arrive tomorrow! We are so excited and can't believe it! We are praying for a safe delivery and a healthy Kelly, please keep us in your prayers as well. Next time you hear from us Kelly should have made her appearance!
I am ready to pack up the car, wondering what we have forgotten to pack....Doug is playing golf by himself to calm his nerves and have some alone time before his life changes for good. I am finishing up report cards!
