Moriah's Birth Announcement !!!


Jenn says:

Moriah has arrived!

Moriah Lynn Jordan Byers was born on Wednesday, February 9th at 7:30p.m. She weighed 7 pounds 14 oz and was 20 1/2 inches in length. Mom is almost recovered from that eventful delivery day. All I can remember saying about her while we were at the hospital was "She's so pretty!" I love looking at her little feet and thinking about how many times she kicked me with them...babies are such miracles!

We live with Jason's parents so she's gotten to spend time with her grandparents, cousins Ayden & Addison, and aunts and uncles on the Byers' side. We have a ton of support out here! We've also had the Gunderson clan out to meet little Moriah as well as Great Grandma Ethel! My mom stayed here for a few weeks after Moriah was born...WHAT A HUGE HELP! I never realized how much support you need after a baby is born! We also celebrated Jason's 26th birthday on February 22nd, as well as my sister Jordan's 18th birthday on the 26th AND my dad's birthday on February 27th. LOTS of February birthdays in this family!

Some fun things about Moriah:
1. She makes lots of different "faces" in her sleep (smiles, frowns, it's very entertaining!) and makes some very SWEET sounds when she's awake and asleep.
2. When she's done eating, a lot of times she tucks in her bottom lip to say "Don't feed me any more!"
3. She loves hanging out with dad when he gets home.
4. She does not like having her clothes changed.
5. She sleeps pretty well at night (lucky mom!)
6. She doesn't like to burp after meals but she toots...A LOT.
7. Her changing table is one of her favorite places to be! She looks up at her picture of 2 elephants on the wall and at the seahorse that is on her little mirror. She is fascinated!
