Miss P has become one of Paisley's nicknames. So has Sweet Pea & Poopy (that's what we call her when she's fussy or she has crapped and it smells like nasty poop). So naming her Paisley was perfect because she got all the 'P' nicknames. There are other P's.
P is for Purdy. From the moment she was born anybody that saw this baby has always said how "BEAUTIFUL" she was. With her beautiful blue eyes, creamy skin & chubby cheeks, she can't help but be a pretty girl!
P is for Precious. If MamMaw Levins said it once, she said it 500 times "Isn't she precious".
P is for Piggy. God love her, she's a BIG girl! She can't help but love her mama's good milk. Todd jokes and says that we need to put Baby Craig on Jenny Craig. It's mean but it's funny. Who doesn't love a chubby baby??!! I know that once she gets crawling & walking, those ninja legs will move her like the wind & she will slim down.
P is for Perfect. This baby is seriously perfect. James 1:17 says "Every good and
PERFECT gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows". That's exactly what she is. I have brought this kid to 3 states on 9 plane rides and she was completely perfect every single time. Had no issues with her ears and either ate or slept the entire plane ride. She never fusses unless something is wrong which is usually when she's tired & ready for a nap. She is sleeping 12 hours a night with one midnight feeding. Todd prayed every single day for 9 months that we would have a 'sleeper' baby and that's what we got! She's happy & healthy. Every time we go to the pediatrician, everything is perfect. Her eyes, her ears (my mom prayed about this one for MONTHS & still does), her weight, her reflexes. She is high on the growth curve but completely normal. So there is only one way to describe her - PERFECT.
We are also blessed & we realize it. I hear horror stories about babies with colic and it makes me so thankful that Paisley doesn't cry much. I realize that if we try this again, we might not be so lucky. But I don't think it's luck, I think it's God true blessing. She is such an easy, happy baby. I realize that it is only because of God's favor that she has the temperament that she does. Thank you Jesus!
Todd & I love her to pieces. She can wear two grown adults out during a day but she is such a JOY! Her smile can melt your heart and make it grow in ways that you would not think was possible. And I could kiss those cheeks forever. She is our PERFECT gift from above!
