Jewel has finally reached 10lbs, well actually 10lbs 2 oz as of March 8th!!!
She is doing really well and hardly spitting up anymore, which is really nice. Adrian and I were a little worried when we first brought her home because she wasn't gaining weight as fast as she should have been and she could spit up like no baby I have ever seen. But all seems to be settling now so we are thrilled. She holds her head up on her own (since about February 24th or so) and tries to play with her toys, she bats at them and if she accidently gets ahold of them, they go straight to her mouth.We are convinced she is a real genius! She is still sticking her tongue out all the time and it has kinda become a trademark, that and her hair. We can't leave the house without someone saying, "WOW! look at all that hair", followed by "Aw she is sticking her tongue out". I guess that is better than "What an ugly baby", not that she is but I am just saying that would be worse. Jewel is smiling all the time and loves time with her daddy the best. When Adrian gets home from work and talks with Jewel she lights up and talks back like a little chatterbox! Jewel also likes to pretend to stand and gets very excited when we stand her on our knees.
On March 10th she attended her first wedding, thanks Bee and
Chris for the invite. She was absolutely wonderful and slept through the entire ceremony.
Between the ceremony and reception the three of us visited with Joel, Naomi and Baby Ella (only 7 days old).
Ella is beautiful and was very cooperative at the wedding, sleeping through the whole thing as well. Jewel got lots of snuggles at the reception from Destiny, Audrey and Pastor Loretta. 
When the music started Jewel and I danced around and she loved it! The wedding was fantastic and excellent practice for her, as she is in Crystal and Bryan's wedding this May; Jewel is going to be one of the flower girls!!! 
"Man do I love Weddings!!!"
