Lourdes 4 1/2 months

Seriously. Look at that precious baby. Her personality comes out more and more each day. She is such a smart baby already aware that strangers want her attention and can pucker her bottom lip real well. She puts her head down on my shoulder and puckers her lip if anyone tries to hold her. She loves her siblings and will tolerate them holding her.  She can sit up pretty well and has found her voice. 

I will always marvel at her stomach.  I look at it everyday and just can't believe it. 

Her cheeks drip real nice and her bright blue eyes just capture my heart everyday.

She plays with these toys so well.  She bats at them and tries to put them in her mouth.

We had her second blood levels drawn at four months.  Every six weeks, we are measuring her AFP level to watch for childhood cancer.  Her first draw was 253.5 and last draw was 117.  We want the numbers to continue to go down each time.  We have her second abdominal ultrasound in August and the next AFP level.  We are always so grateful for prayers for our beautiful little girl.
