Jocelyn's fever of 101.2 at 3 weeks

This was slow in the posting, but at Jocelyn's 3 week b-day, if you will, she had a fever of 101.2! I was unsure what to do and with the help from family and friends we called the doctor 4am and he sent us to the hospital. First the one in Kahuku then to Kapi'olani (Honolulu) for a 48hr monitoring and testing. On one of the tests it showed there was bacteria in her blood, but THEN they discovered it was a contaminant from when it was drawn. All in all it was emotional but she was just fine! She just got a lil bug from somewhere and it was taken care of in a day. Better to be safe than sorry! That's for sure. But while we were there Derek and I enjoyed that pull out chair together! ha ha They have a rule of no one sleeping on the floor or in the crib with the baby! ;) Could you imagine Derek climbing in there with her!? We had very nice nurses that were helpful and consoling. All is well that ends well! But it was sad to see her get pricked and poked so much. Now she's happy and healthy, we just need to plump her up a bit! Thanks for your love and prayers!

Happy 1 Month, Jocelyn

She can fit into some of her headbands now! I'm sorry, but how was I suppose to pick just one of these faces?! ha I love how sge gets a bit cross-eyed...

"Slumber party anyone?"

Jocelyn Kailaleilani

ALoHA!

Jocelyn has been so much fun! She is now 3 weeks old and before Grandpa left he has a great idea! Here is just a teaser of our fun Hawaiian photo shoot! Our lil Hula girl! He had the idea of cracking a walnut in half... that may have fit a bit better, but ;D we just embraced the coconut. We were surprised how well she cooperated! She's a natural.

Some of you may notice the Kailaleilani... this is the middle name we almost gave her, but it seemed it could become overwhelming. So it's UNofficially her middle name (if you ask me and Grandpa) Kaila is pronounced Kai- la ... {kai rhymes with sky - la rhymes with the}

Kaila is my mom's name in Hawaiian which translates to: stylish, beautiful, fashionable. Kai alone means water/ocean. Leilani means royal child/lei from heaven. Jocelyn has the same meaning as Hillary: joyful, cheerful, happy. SO... if you were curious there you have it. We wanted to give her a Hawaiian middle name since she, and only she, will be born in Hawaii! ;> She'll have that to brag about.

Mahalo nui loa for taking the time to check out our cheerful, beautiful, royal child from heaven!

One of the many fun faces she makes throughout the day!

She's so pretty when she sleeps! ;) As her shirt says, she's our sweetie!
Precious moments...
She's so LITTLE! We have a hard time getting over this little phenomenon.

"Love em and kiss em and squeeze em and hold em just do it and after you do SHE WILL BE YOURS!" She's so fun to hold and cuddle up with.Test drive in the back seat! As we drive her around she falls asleep! This was fun to see her hands from under the blanket when we got back home. Hee hee

Fun sleep-little nights and Fun nursing days! Here are some more photos of our pretty princess! She's doing great... just a little gasie and burpie... which means a little frown! But we've got some drops we're hoping will help and that maybe with time this too shall pass.

Happy days!
Talk to you soon...

These next photos were not torture! I promise! Jocelyn slept all day Monday and was up ALL Monday night/Tuesday morning! She didn't seem to remember the sleeping rule! But anyways, because she was up all Tuesday morning, she wanted to sleep ALL Tuesday DAY to make up for it. I was REALLY trying to not let her sleep... see! This is how OUT she was!!!! Now just check out the time of this post, she was up again.
