Lailee's 5 months updates

You weigh 13.8 lbs (25th percentile)

You are 25 inches tall (25th percentile)

You are so so so pretty! 

You smile all day long...even when you cry you smile!!! Your Emmi did this as a baby too!

When I walk out of your sight you get upset! 

You love to be loved on and held but when it's time for naps and bedtime you want to be laid down! However, your daddy likes to rock you to sleep and you don't mind that a bit! 

You press your lips together and make noises with you mouth!

When Livia just as much looks your way you laugh do hard!!

You make this excited face and you say ooo ooo ooo!

We dropped your 5:00 feeding so you are eating 4 times a day!

We introduced you to your lovie...Lucy the owl! You instantly wrapped her up in your arms and put you fist in your mouth! She made you so happy! 

You are a blankie girl! Jane said the other day you were a little fussy... She laid your blanket on you and that was all it took to make you happy! 

Lailee, 
We can't tell you enough how sweet you are! Everyone talks about you being the happiest and best baby they have ever met....it's true! We are so in love with you and love watching all your new milestones! We can't believe you have been in this world for 5 months! Life is even more perfect than before! You makes us so happy angel baby! We love you more than anything in this world! 

Love always,
Mommy and Daddy

Rock Your Socks for Lera {SAVE THE DATE}

We are extra excited to celebrate our first World Down Syndrome Day! Join us as we “Rock our Socks” for Lera!  March 21 is World Down Syndrome Day (WDSD), the day the Down syndrome community creates a single, global voice advocating for the rights, inclusion and well being of people with Down syndrome.  Every year, on March 21, people all around the world come together to celebrate by wearing brightly colored or mismatched socks.  March 21 is symbolic because people with Down syndrome have 3 copies of their 21st chromosome. Socks were chosen because the karyotype of Down syndrome chromosomes actually looks like mismatched socks!  We believe it is our family’s mission to raise awareness about our precious Lera, and help change the way the world views Down syndrome one extraordinary day at a time!  💛💙 If you choose to “Rock Your Socks” please share your picture with us to document on the blog! This blog will be printed and used as Lera’s baby book. If you choose...

At 11 weeks our OB at the time noticed a thickened nuchal fold and suggested we do a genetic blood test. Honestly, we didn’t believe anything would be detected with our baby, we were just looking forward to finding out the gender so early. The results came back, and the screening detected a 76% predictive value for Trisomy 21. Definitely not something we ever expected. And the way it was presented to Cody and me made us leave the appointment scared, confused, and in denial of the results we had just been given. We cried, we were mad, we prayed and processed and prayed some more. We shared the results with our closest family and friends and just like us, they prayed over our baby daily. After t...
