Happy Sunday!

Hello Naia's fans. Updates on our girl:


** Naia received her first flowers. We were all so happily surprised! Thank you Naia's great aunts and great grandma =)!!

** i don't expect this to be a regular thing. i'll be happy if we get it occassionally these days, but we have a new sleeping, nonfeeding time record: 6 hours. yep thats right. from 430 am to 1030...just now =). Starting at about 7, brooks and i just sat there, staring at her, sitting up straight at attention each time she stirred, grunted, or smiled in her sleep, ready and waiting. i think she could've waited longer, but i sortof couldn't...

** she smiles, A LOT. sometimes in her sleep ( i know, i know, gas...but if letting some out makes her smile, it makes us smile). I even asked her to the other day, and she smiled. i got it on video and everything, but you know my frustration with the video thing. you'll have to take my word for it.

** she makes noises that would put most people i know to shame.

**her eyelashes have gotten LOOOONG!! The hair on her head is growing (NOT falling out) too. its long enough that i brush it (ok, it may not NEED to be brushed, but it can be...)

** she has grown out of some of her clothes =(. not many, but enough for me to feel like time is already going by way too fast. We go to the doctor this week and i am really interested in what her weight will be-- i think it will be an impressive number. tune in after thursday =).

** we had a great visit from grandma and grandpa fleming ( i know, i dont intend to call you guys that, mom and dad...its for identification purposes only). We are sad to have seen them go. But something tells me that we'll see them again soon!



This little outfit made an appearance on the thanksgiving blog, but you may have missed it. It says "stuffed" (which our healthy eater usually is), was given to her by grandma linda, and was her actual thanksgiving outfit. so cute!


** A favorite thing to look at. This is the sun going down from our bedroom window. Any kind of light, she likes....



** She attended her first party! The Hui No'eau, our little art...."place", had its faculty christmas party on friday and we actually made it! She was gawked over by our buddies there and was the "life of the party"; actually, she slept the whole hour and a half we were there, brooks holding her the whole time. Pardon the blur-- this is her party outfit that i LOVE... can you believe the bubble skirt? (than you Aunt Daina!!)


** she's been getting cuter and sweeter by the day.

** And finally, she is looking very forward to meeting grandma nana, annie, anne marie... we'll figure out a definite name soon! we pick her up at the airport this evening and can't wait!

Wonderful and informative blog. Thanks so much for the updates-I miss her!!!! I am SO happy to hear about the 6 hours and laughed reading about your reaction. It's like you can't believe it when it finally starts to happen.
