Birthdays and balloons

Jordan's only 1st cousin, Zach, turned 5 on New Year's Eve. I was glad they chose to have his party on the 30th this year so we could celebrate New Year's with our friends. This was the second birthday party that Jordan attended. At the first, she was so happy being passed around by hometown people who had not met her yet that she didn't notice the multitude of balloons. However, at Zach's party, once the balloons got her attention, she wouldn't look at much else. I could only drag Zach away from bowling for 1 picture, and Jordan was too interested in the balloon above to look at the camera.
This was when Dave held the balloon down close enough for Jordan to really check it out. I had my fingers crossed that she wouldn't manage to pop it in her face. This was also Jordan's first time wearing shoes instead of just socks or booties. Even though they said 3-6 month, they were huge on her and kept falling off. Apparently her feet aren't as off the charts as her weight! ;)

Jordan's next well baby visit is on Tuesday, so we'll find out then exactly how much she weighs and how tall she is. Any guesses? If I remember correctly, at the 2 month appt, she was 14 lbs and 23", though at a sick appt about a month ago, she was already 16 lbs!
