Newborn Jaiden Pictures

Hi

Jaiden Taylor Morris was born this morning at 6:23am. She weighs 6lbs 13oz and is 19 1/2 inches long.

I have to get back to the hospital … all is well … but they make everyone stay for 24 hours.

I just popped home real quick, and had a chance to edit a couple of pictures. For those who don’t like baby pictures I apologize … but for those who do, I hope you enjoy looking at these half as much as I do

Talk to you again real soon,
Todd

Babies never seem to be terribly thrilled about being out in the real world …

She was a little happier once she got some clothes on …

Of course she was even more content to get back to mommy …

Then it was time for a nap (the shirt cracks me up … we won’t be taking that one home with us)

And finally, here’s a close-up shot of Jaiden sleeping …

Larger versions of these images are on my Flickr Page. I’ll be adding more pictures there as I get a chance to do more editing.

Texas chow

OK,we have been in Texas for about two weeks now and it’s getting better.We have been out a few times to try the local Texas cuisine.We first tried the Olive Garden because I keep seeing the commercials when I was in Hawaii and it looked really good but I was a little disappointed after we got there.I actually prefer the Macaroni Grill,it’s really yummy.We also have gone to Cici’s(my hubby loves their price) and the Golden Corral.So far the kids favorite has been the Texas Roadhouse.Their food is really good,the bread is soo yummy and the price isn’t too bad.We still have so much to try and we will get there slowly seeing as we won’t be leaving here anytime soon.

Jaiden doing “bye-bye”

Jaiden has learned to do the cutest little thing.She has learned to wave bye-bye.Well she does it to herself.She does it everytime you ask her to do it.She also has bravely let go of furniture while standing.She has standing unassisted for quite a few seconds.My baby girl keeps having little milestones and it’s making me a little sad.Even though she will always be the baby of the family she won’t be a baby baby.
