ELEVEN years ago TODAY...

...we were blessed with our first little baby, and life was never the same again!!

Jordan came into this world as a 6 lb 10 oz perfect angel. She had thick blond hair that the nurses spiked up in a little mohawk. Jordan slept in 4 hour stretches and ate in about 45min. sessions. She was content just to lay on her back and kick her legs...although all we wanted to do was hold her:)--first time parents. Jordan only cried when she was hungry or dirty. When she got a little older, Jordan had to be rocked to sleep every night while we sang her every verse to at least 3 songs (she should absolute know every single word to "I am a Child of God", "Teach me to Walk in the Light" and her baby song daddy wrote her!!). Jordan was always a good little girl. She listened to her parents, was very careful and cautions which made our job easier. She loved to dance and sing. She really was a easy, happy baby and little girl.

Now Jordan is ELEVEN!! Where did the time go? Here's a little about Jordan now:

-Loves music...dancing to it, singing to it, and blaring it so loud that mom has to say "Turn it down" (makes me feel like a granny)

-Loves animals. Jordan's room is plastered with pictures of dogs, kitties, horses and dolphins!

-Loves planning, decorating, and being in charge (maybe this is the "oldest child" coming out)

-Favorite TV: Victorious, Good Luck Charlie, Jessie and...Modern Family (I screen these before letting her watch...she seems to want to watch more of "my" shows and less kids shows now)

-Favorite Color: Lime Green and Purple

-Favorite things to do: Playing with friends, playing on her Itouch (taking pics and making movies), arts & crafts, piano...

Well, that's a little bit about eleven-year-old Jordan. We love her. We are so blessed to have her in our lives. Happy Birthday Jordan!!
