Jessa is becoming more fun as each day passes and really is becoming a ham. She loves loves loves music, laughing, making faces and talking with grandparents on facetime! This past month for baby J has been one that has been more difficult for poor little girl due to tummy problems. Jessa didn't start eating solids until after Christmas time really and so it has been hard for her as she has tried to digest the things that she has been introduced to. Finally the past week I didn't know what else to do when Jessa was pooping and her poor little bottom was bleeding because of constipation. I took her to the doctor and he suggested I give her prune juice.. and it wasn't working... oh sometimes I just need to learn to be humble because as I prayed the answer was to stop giving her food. Just straight breast milk and within a day she was out of the park with her tummy problems. I have come to the conclusion that poor little jessa's tummy is just not par to where it should be yet. She was still in January waking up struggling with gas problems. As I dealt with the constipation it wasn't until just this month past as I worked to figure out the tummy issue that Gripewater the non alcoholic kind worked to help Jessa with her gas. Blowing wind past that one, Jessa is proving to be my little love bug more and more. On Valentine's day J gave daddy his long awaited present and said dadadada all day and night long. J was ecstatic to hear it as he waited a long time but baby J is a stinker and uses mama and dada sparingly. Jessa actually later this month surprised both J and I with her first word that she uses very very sparingly and only when she is upset and crying and I haven't answered her call. I asked J to rock Jessa to sleep one night and she was busy fussing and not settling and was busy gabbering away getting angrier and angrier. Finally she stopped and started to repeat over with her arms outstretched to me, "mum, mum, mum, mum, ma, ma" and continued with mamamama until J got her to sleep. Oh I love my little button. This morning I was on the phone and Jessa is a little too much like me she is very very timid to try new things. Jessa is nervous to crawl still and will rock on all fours hoping that we will pick her up, she has tried to go but has face planted every time she has tried. J was letting her fuss a bit today to see if she would crawl as I was taking a call for work and Jessa finally gave up fussing and called "mum" and of course I cam running to pick her up. Oh I love Jessa and I'll say it over and over again. My favorite times this past month have been as Jessa has wormed her way across the bed when we are playing to fall into my arms for a hug or grabbing mr.hubbins and I pulling herself up and then leaning her head on our shoulders as if to say thanks!
The last thing I'll share about Jessa or maybe two things that is so funny is Jessa loves music and will rock back and forth and sway, clap her hands, to the music she loves baby laptime and loves to smile and watch the other babies. Jessa has discovered the power of her voice and likes to scream ahhh!! repeatedly a lot Jessa is so fun!!
