JP and I have both been amazed at how peaceful of a little girl we have. She is every mother's dream baby. She eats full feedings when it's time to eat. She is awake, alert, and cute during her "awake" times. She goes down for her naps without crying and sleeps peacefully the whole time. The only times she ever cries is when she's either cold (like during diaper changes) or gassy.
God ministered to us yesterday that she is our gift of peace in a time of storm. Normally, newborn babies are associated with sleepless nights, red eyes, and extreme fatigue. Things have been rather stressful for JP at work, and the last thing he needed was a stressful home situation right now. So God blessed us with a peaceful baby. JP is able to pick her up and forget about all of the weights he's carrying. She brings peace to our home instead of fatigue.
We thank God for this special, amazing gift.

I am glad you have a peaceful baby. I was praying for that for you. I did not experience that with Elijah until about the 3rd month due to his reflux, but now I am going to be more than dilligent in praying for a peaceful and sleepy baby for #2..with no reflux. :) It was hard for me in the begining, but, thankfully, Elijah has grown into being a very content and smiley kid. He is a delight to us, just as Israel is to you. :) Kids are a blessing, eh! :)
Brianna and Dylan were wonderful therapy for me. It sure does help you forget your daily worries.
