Today is Becca’s 4-week birthday – it’s hard to believe she’s a month old already. This is a picture of Becca with the bear
Santa gave her for Christmas. The bear’s head is about as big as Becca’s. (To give you a perspective of how big the bear is, check out my hand in relation to the bear’s body.)
Today Becca weighs 3 lbs and 3.5 ounces. We can definitely tell a difference in her size – she’s starting to fill out and actually look like a little girl, instead of an old woman. The nurse last night gave Becca and her teddy bear matching hair bows.
We’re looking forward to celebrating Christmas tomorrow. It will be our first Christmas as parents and our first in our own home. We’re grateful to people from our church family who have lent us Christmas decorations (will post pictures later). I’m looking forward to spending the entire day relaxing with my husband (he’s not going to do any dissertation work tomorrow) and visiting our little girl.
Thanks for your continual prayers for Becca.
What an answer to prayer. Becca is doing great. God is so good! Always there and in control.
So happy to hear she is steadily gaining weight. So good to see her actually filling out. She is such a beautiful, precious little girl.
Merry Christmas Jenson 3. This truly is a wonderful Christmas!
Merry Christmas. I know this will be an exciting one. Yes you can tell a big difference in her weight gain.
BEAUTIFUL. Yes, this is our first Christmas in our home too. We miss you very much. Becca is looking beautiful, and 3 pounds 3.5 ounces…..that’s incredible. In spite of the troubles (which I can’t even imagine), you are a blessed woman. LOVE YOU!!!
I love the pictures (and the matching bows!). Merry Christmas! We hope you have a wonderful first Christmas together as a family of 3!
How exciting — Becca’s first Christmas, and your first Christmas in your own home! What a wonderful blessing that Becca is growing and doing well. Lord willing, she’ll be home with you before you know it! Merry Christmas to you!!
Merry Christmas!
