Can you believe it?, our little princess in 8 weeks old today! I can hardly believe how quickly the time has gone and how much she has grown. At her last doctor's visit (Tuesday, September 12) she weighed 9lbs 3oz. We are so amazed at every little thing she does. Maizy is now responding to voices by turning her head in response, she coos and laughs, she smiles in response to your smile and laughter, she would rather be looking around than cuddled (unless its nap time). She is so curious about the world around her. We are having to say good bye to the good ole days when you could hold her for hours and she would just sleep. She is an active baby, who loves to kick her feet grab onto her toys in her play center. We think she is the smartest baby on the planet (we might be a little partial). The other night, when Rod and I took her to choir practice, Grammy Cheryl got on the microphone, and when Maizy heard her voice her eyes lit up and she laughed. I was so impressed with her response I had to stop everyone and tell them. I am amazed at the growth of our little girl. She has definitely been a huge reminder of God's awesome love and grace. We look forward to all of you meeting her, she is truly a slice of heaven, the joy of my heart and the apple of her daddies eye.
