Sleepy Girl



Much to our surprise we are pleased to announce that...WE HAVE A SLEEPER! Those of you who know us well know that Jayden struggled with sleeping from day one. Well, this little girl of ours is the opposite. I actually have to wake her up several times each day to feed her! WHAT! I can't believe it even as I type. She is a content little one who loves to snuggle but also sleeps well all by herself. She seems really peaceful most of the day (and night). I am convinced that every baby is uniquely different from the start. We are certainly counting our blessings...

Jayden is doing pretty well with her. He is having some issues with eating, which is not unusual for him but he has struggled even more since the transition. Please pray that he would get what he needs to be healthy. He is super sweet to Journey and we are sure that he is going to be a protective big brother. He already goes up to her and rubs her head and pats her back. Today she was stretching with her arms reached out and he thought she wanted a high five. Hilarious. He instinctively responded by swatting her hand. He was so proud of himself.

We had a photographer come out to the house on Monday. Can't wait to post some pics from the photo shoot!

YEA! Grady was like that from the start too... and i still have to wake him up from his daytime naps! Elle was also like Jayden--a non sleeper so we were thrilled to have one that slept! Glad you guys are doing well.

Hi Demetrius,

It's your sister Nahiya. Just wanted to congratulate you and Amy on the birth of your beautiful daughter. I pray that God will continue to bless you and your family and multiply the success, peace, and prosperity of your home. I look forward to meeting her in the near future. If our cheerleaders win regionals we will be heading your way to compete in Orlando and I will be able to meet the newest addition to the family.

Love You,
Nahiya
