Well life at the Manderscheid house is starting to get into a routine, for now!!! Alyssa is doing great! she really is a good baby!! She has a way of pulling on our hearts without even knowing it! JV had her last night, she was sleeping on his chest and he said "does she have to grow up?" and its funny because I was just thinking that before when I had her that we will never get that time back. She makes me cry all the time just looking at her. It def. makes me miss my mom though, I wish she was here to see and enjoy her with us!!!
Ok, enough of the sappy stuff!!! Right now she is eating about 3 1/2- 4 1/2 ounces at each feeding. During the day she goes about 3 hours but at night she is going about 6 or so!! The past 2 nights we have put her to bed at 11 (she has eaten about 9) and she sleeps till around 4!! then she is usually up again around 8! so she is sleeping very well!!!
I am loving being at home with her during the day! its hard not to be working though. Dad is doing wonderful at the shop. He is busy and learning lots of new things that I do, but he is doing well.
Alyssa goes back to the dr. on sept. 4th and she will get her first round of shots. I will plan on going back to work after that. We are thinking that when I go back I will go back 4 days a week. She will be in day care 2 days and John and Alice are going to watch her for 2 days (which is an amazing help!!) that will help big time on day care cost and then thats 3 less days per weeks she will have to be in day care.
Well I'm sure I could go on forever about all the funny and cute things she does but for time reasons I won't!! Bottom line, we are so so so blessed to have her in our lives and we are loving every min of!!!
WE ARE SO GREATFUL FOR ALL THE GREAT GIFTS AND HELP THAT WE HAVE GOTTEN WITH HER!!!
WE LOVE YOU ALL!!!
JV, Amy and Alyssa
