Little Yeli Bean you amaze us each day. We knew you were a fighter from the moment you were born. We heard you cry for one second then there was silence because they quickly put you on a ventilator. You showed everyone how strong you were when you decided to extubate yourself when you were six days old. We know that you like things done on your time. You show us that everyday. You are changing and growing so fast. We love and cherish every moment of it. I thought when I went back to work I would be tired after working all day. I surprise myself, I always have energy for you. I love spending every minute with you. Your daddy and I have become friends with people that were once strangers now they are our closest friends. God tested and trusted in us a year ago with our faith. We prasied him through it all. Everyday you remind us how precious life is. You are a miracle!
As of your First Birthday you:
-are saying Mama, Dadda,book, Kitty, Shane, Hi, Mol(Molly), qak(quack),tery(teddy),Bir(bird)
-baby sign: doggie, book, wave bye bye, duck, milk
-are pulling yourself up and crusing. You crawl all around the house and get into everything your body fits in
-you hand us stuff you find
-climbing up stairs with our supervision
-have 7 teeth and one is peeking out today!
-wake up in the middle of the night, you are thirsty for BM and want to cuddle with mama you go back to sleep til 8am
-wake up in a good mood everyday and when you want us to come in you yell "Shane"
-love eating chicken, cheese, green beans pears and apple sauce
-love going into all the drawers and cabinets even though they are childproof.
-enjoy playing with the dog bowls. You tease Molly and Twinkine by putting your hand out and making them think you are giving them food.
-like pulling Max's tail.
We are so blessed to have you in our lives Nayeli. Thank you God for giving us Nayeli Faith. She is a living miracle and are grateful for you letting us be her mommy and daddy. Happy 1st Birthday Nayeli Faith!
He fills my life with good things.
