My First Born.

Brayden Noel was born on Jan 1. She was born a little miniature adult....She hated being bundled and had to have her hands out. The first time I saw her Her eyes were wide open. It was like to didn't want to miss a thing. She was long and skinny...Her first cry was the most beautiful sound I ever heard. I couldn't sleep for days, I just stared at her....I was very sick when she was born, with ecoli that I had gotten from the hospital and when it was time to give her her first bath. Jarrod did it. He was such a good daddy, trying to take care of me and the new baby..Angie, my sister came and stayed with me too. Brayden being wide eyed and curious did not like being confined to nurse.. She would tear off the blanket. I was very modest and hated that. She would wiggle and cry every time I tried. We finally figured it out. She wanted tot be in control.. She was much happier when she could see what was going on and could hold her own bottle. I stopped nursing her around 7 months. She wasn't a cuddler then, but is now. She loves to snuggle. When her sisters came, she was another mother to them. She wanted to help and make sure they were okay. She is very independent and can figure anything out. She has always been my helper. She is so smart and caring. People are drawn to her. She is definitely a better person then I will ever be. I am so proud to be her mom. To name a few things she likes. Her favorite color has always been blue. She loves dogs. I think if she could she would have a dog of every kind,and possibly be a dog. Ha ha. She always wanted to play doggie. Her sisters never did. Which always really bummed her out, I think they would've played more with her except it had to be done in her way.. Her best friend is Elle. She loves school this year. She is an excellent swimmer. She loves origami. She is fun to be around and has a wonderful sense of humor. She can figure out how to read any directions and patterns. I have had her read them and teach me how. She is patient. She is sweet and loving. She is sensitive. She is my first born.....
