In one month


Jordan will be one in one month. It is hard to believe that she is eleven months old. It seems like just yesterday she was this tiny creature who could not hold her head up and needed to eat every hour and a half to two hours. Today she is a speed demon who still needs to eat every two hours but at least now she can feed herself.
In the last eleven months Jordan has learned how to clap hands, wave, give high fives, hold a bottle, drink from a sippy cup, hold up her own head, roll over, crawl, and walk. She has cut seven teeth (four on the top and three on the bottom) and is getting ready to cut another another tooth on the bottom. She has gone from eating baby cereal and baby food to chicken nuggets and bagels with cream cheese over night.
It is hard to remember what life was like before Jordan arrived, she fit in like a missing puzzle piece. The girls welcomed her with open arms and love her more than we ever expected them to. They can not go to sleep without giving Jordan at least one kiss and a hug. On the rare occasions when we do something without her they ask about her constantly "where Jordan Toes?" When we asked Lior what her favorite toy was, she sat and thought for a minute and replied "baby". When we asked what her babies name was she smiled and said "Jordan Toes!" and looked at us like we were crazy, of course that is what her babies name is. Sydney has also named all of her babies Jordan Toes and takes great pleasure feeding her anything she is eating and helping change her diapers, even the stinky ones!
In the last eleven months Jordan has managed to steal our hearts with her magnetic smile and overall happiness. It is hard to imagine that she will be one in a month. She is our baby and our baby is growing up in front of our eyes!
