Custom written rhyme for Jan Heiden:
Info received- baby shower
She was born 3 months premature. She had a tough start in life. Her mother D.Ann also had
a really tough time with the birth. D.Ann almost died, so maybe you could include her.
Everything was to be put in a diaper bag with
notes attached |
|
You've come a long way , baby!
Since your tough start.
Being born premature,
And nearly breaking your mother's heart.
But you and D.Ann made it.
And another child there will be.
How precious is the moment:
That first picture you'll see.
|
picture frame |
This story begins-
After you walk in your front door.
From your baby's point of view...
'Cause you will sleep no more.
You are fast asleep... TIME TO WAKE UP!!
GOTTA GET OUT OF THAT BED!!
"I'm cranky and hungry."
It's time to be fed.
|
bottles, formula,
bibs
breast feeding- bibs, burp rags |
"I think I am
full,
I am hungry, no more.
Go back to sleep, mommy.
I won't cry anymore."
"I was so warm and cozy.
Now what do I do?
It's sooo chilly out here...
I know- WAH, WAH, BOO, HOO!!"
|
baby blanket |
You lie down once
again.
And just as you fall asleep...
NO WAY! This can't be happening.
But yes, it's your child you hear weep.
"Ohhh, I'm so uncomfortable.
I think that was too big of a meal.
Mommy, I need you,
You know how I hate this feel."
|
diapers, wipes |
The baby won't go to
sleep now.
"Isn't it time to play?
I've eaten and gone potty,
And slept all day."
"Why won't you play with me?
I'll cry until you do.
The car ride won't put me to sleep.
And rocking or sucking my fingers won't do.
|
pacifier
for the parent who will give in- toy |
Finally!! You get to
sleep.
No more crying baby do you hear.
But there goes the alarm clock
'Cause daylight is near.
Just pack up the diaper bag.
You'll need an extra outfit or two.
Bring baby to grandma's
So you can have time for you.
|
for baby- outfit
for mom- bubble bath, book, pillow, or
something mom likes to do |
