Samantha,+Sean,+and+Baby+Felicia





**(Sam)** Last night, Baby Felicia came into the world! She couldn't wait to come to school and meet Sean. She met Sean during 2nd Period and was excited to spend some time with him. During study, I took her to the library and she picked out the biggest book she could find - a Stephen King novel! She was only a day old and read half the book! She ate lunch with Sean and spent the remainder of the day with him. I took her to track real quick and got a picture with Bry and Laura’s baby - Blake, her new best friend! Then Sean took her for the night. **(Sean)** We watched TV all night together. Then, she fell asleep on the couch and I took her to bed.
 * Day 1: March 16, 2011: **



**(Sean)** I fed little Felicia some baby food and she seems to have taken a liking to Banana Nut. She’s a loud baby – she kept me up and I only got 1.5 hours of sleep last night. I can’t wait until she can sleep straight through the night. “Sleep like a baby,” yeah right… **(Sam)** Felicia had a ton of fun in Biology! She had play dates with Blake, Jasmine, Karen, and Alanna. She and Alanna even helped Nazia and I study for our A.P Biology exam. I took her to the library later and we read a magazine together. We spent the remainder of the day eating lunch, going to track, taking a nap, watching TV, and then eventually falling asleep.
 * Day 2: March 17, 2011: **



**(Sam)** This morning, she was very fussy and wouldn’t sit still. I fed her some breakfast and she calmed down. Her hair finally grew in too! In Biology, Sean, Felicia, and I took our first family picture together, Felicia was happy. She had a gym play date with the rest of the babies. She enjoyed watching us play volleyball, but wished she could have joined too. **(Sean)** We had lunch together and I took her for the weekend. We had another relaxing evening together and I hoped she would sleep peacefully this time…
 * Day 3: March 18, 2011: **



**(Sean)** I CANNOT FUNCTION WITH NO SLEEP. I AM VERY FRUSTRATED….and I have to go to church. Her grandmother came home from work and went straight to bed. I could tell Felicia was a little upset. On the bright side, she was very easy to get ready. We took a few pictures; however, I forgot to bring the camera to church. Later in the day, I fed her a bowl of ram soup and she liked it. We did various activities together and that eventually tired her out. Maybe I’ll actually get some sleep tonight…
 * Day 4: March 19, 2011: **



**(Sean)** Felicia ‘helped’ me and her grandfather cook curry goat and rice with dal. She didn’t really eat any because it was a bit too much hard food. Later on she kept me company while I polished my car. Thankfully she didn’t vomit on it. I took her to Sears to go dress shirt shopping, and then to Wal-Mart to get a few groceries. She slept the entire time which means she’ll be up all night. SOMEONE SAVE ME! I can tell she’s a daddy’s girl. She likes cars, my food, and the computer. I let her ‘play’ a computer game with me and she has some serious talent.
 * Day 5: March 20, 2011: **



**(Sam)** Felicia was actually very calm this morning. She was happy to see me since I didn’t see her all weekend! I got her a new outfit and she was happy to wear it. We ate lunch and she took a nap right after. We went outside for track and she was upset. She didn’t like the cold very much, but was her happy self again once we were back inside. After practice, I gave her my favorite snack to eat and she seemed to enjoy it very much! Later, we went shopping. Felicia absolutely loved it! It must have been tiring because she fell asleep as soon as we got home.
 * Day 6: March 21, 2011: **

**(Sam)** Felicia was awake even before I was this morning! I fed her breakfast and got ourselves ready. She was excited that she got Subway for lunch! I was supposed to give Felicia to Sean this morning, but I couldn’t find him! Felicia was a little upset, but eventually we found him! She spent the school day with him and even watched us practice for National Honor Society. We could tell she was proud of us and wanted to be just as smart as us! **(Sean)** I had Felicia tonight. We always have relaxing evenings together, I like it. We watched TV, but she dozed off as always. (I hope she sleeps well tonight...)
 * Day 7: March 22, 2011: **

**(Sean)** Felicia woke up at 6 AM again. I am slowly going insane. After a bowl of baby cereal and a cup of 'hot' chocolate, I wanted to go outside, but I figured it was too cold for a 1 week-old. Besides, I hate the cold. Since I had to shovel, I left her with her grandmother to watch Boo-Bah. After I got back in I wanted to sleep, and luckily so did Felicia. She's such a good little baby.

<span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;"> **<span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">Day 9: March 24, 2011: ** <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">**(Sam)** Felicia was a good girl this morning when I got her. She didn't feel like socializing very much, so she stuck close to my side. However, I had NHS practice, so she was content on playing with her toys and watching. She went to track and took a nap while I ran. She was such a well-behaved baby today, I was happy. I fed her a snack as soon as I got home from practice and we watched TV together. She wasn't able to see me at the NHS induction, so her Grandpa watched her. I read her a story when I got home since she had trouble sleeping. Eventually, it lulled her to sleep.

<span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">**(Sam)** Sean and I spent our day at New York for our Biology field trip! I could tell Felicia was upset because she wanted to go as well. However, she spent the day napping and even helped cook dinner with her Grandma. I'm glad she behaved well and didn't cause chaos. So as a reward, I brought back a cookie from Planet Hollywood just for her! She gobbled the whole thing down and loved it! I guess she had an exhausting day because she was already dozing off before I could even spend some time with her.

<span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">**(Sam)** First weekend I get to spend with Felicia! We were both so excited! She woke up before I did, so I fed her breakfast and our day consisted of watching TV and reading. Later, I went to the movies with a friend and she was upset that she couldn't come (it was rated PG-13!), but I promised her that we'll watch a movie as soon as I got back home. I was informed that she was napping while I was gone and as soon as I got back, she already had the movie picked out - Beauty and the Beast! She loves that movie and wouldn't stop singing the songs until she went to bed, which took a lot more time than usual!
 * <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">Day 11: March 26, 2011: **

<span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">**(Sam)** Felicia and I had an eventful Sunday. For lunch, we had hamburgers and chips. She ate half of her burger and some chips; her stomach was very full. Then, she took a nap on our trip to Wal-Mart. For being such a good girl on our weekend together, I got her a Velvet Brite! When she woke up, she was so happy and immediately started coloring it in. I noticed she has very good artistic skills! Afterward, she tried to help me with some homework. She didn't finish the question she started because she had fallen asleep! I got her to bed and tucked her in carefully so she wouldn't wake up.
 * <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">Day 12: March 27, 2011: **

<span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">

<span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">**(Sean)** I was watching NatGeo, and I was very surprised she stayed quiet for the whole program. I guess she likes the scenery. We ate lunch together and then she took a nap. She seemed very tired throughout the day, so we didn't do anything exciting. We watched some more TV together until I got her ready for bed. She fell asleep easily this time. (Thank goodness!)
 * <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">Day 13: March 28, 2011: ** [[image:watchintv.jpg width="318" height="225" align="right" caption="Watching TV"]]

**<span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">Day 14: March 29, 2011: ** <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">**(Sam)** Felicia seemed very tired and cranky throughout the day. She wouldn't sit still and was very fussy. In Biology, she was the Maid of Honor for Blake and Karen's Wedding (they grew up so fast!) Eventually, she napped through most of the classes and was her happy self by the time lunch rolled in. At track, she had fun meeting Brittany Gordon and liked her company! Felicia also had a play date with Blake and Alec. She loves being with her friends! At home, she seemed tired again. I fed her dinner and we watched GLEE on TV (her new favorite show) before she fell into a deep slumber.


 * <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">Day 15: March 30, 2011: **
 * <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">(Sean) **<span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">Today she messed around with my tenor sax. She was more amused by the sousaphone, so I put her in it. Later, she watched the track meet against Western Wayne - a small portion anyway. I left her with the grandparents so I can rehearse for Karaoke. She was waiting for me when I got home. We spent some time together before I got her to fall asleep.




 * <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">Day 16: March 31, 2011: **
 * <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">(Sean) **<span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">Today, Felicia went on a joy ride with Jess Rosati around Taylor. I forgot to tell Sam, so naturally her "mother instincts" kicked in and spent the last day with Felicia. **(Sam)** I'm so sad this is the last day with Felicia! Sean and I are sending her to camp for kids! Felicia was ecstatic! Anyways, she made a new friend today...Val and Jimmy's baby - Jaime! Felicia was very calm today, her behavior has improved greatly! She went to track with me and then back home. I gave her to a babysitter because I was visiting my sister. Felicia didn't seem to mind. When I finally got back, I realized that she had fallen asleep. She looked so cute! I'm going to miss her so much, but I know she'll have fun at camp tomorrow!



<span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">**Biography:** Felicia Althea Williams was born on March 16, 2011 to Sam Keoonela and Sean Williams. We sent her to a private school at the age of 3. We wanted to put her into the daycare, but the superintendent misread the DOB and thought she was 4, so he put her in preschool. It wasn't until her actual 4th birthday, they realized the mistake. By the time she was graduated at the age of 5, she was "valedictorian." Afterward, Sean put the family in debt with his new Bimmer. We had to send her to public school. That's when she tried out for the the school's basketball team. Felicia received one of the best scores of all time! She was so good in fact, that early in her sophomore season, she racked up 1,000 points! She received a full scholarship to wherever she wanted to go by 11th grade. Photography has always interested her. She won the national reflections award for best photographer. She eventually attended the Art Institute of Photography in Philadelphia and graduated with a 4.0 average. She opened her own photography business, but she found taking pictures of people boring. She moved to St. Lucia on a mountain. She bought a small house because she was planning to travel the world and working for National Geographic, which did happen. Felicia has traveled to all of the 7 continents and has one of the most envied careers in the world. Felicia doesn't have a family of her own because of her job and traveling all over the world. She was too busy to settle down! She's happy where she is at in her life and we are both very proud of her. <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;"> **Personality:** Felicia is a kind, loving girl who has personality traits like her parents. She is nice and quiet at first (like her mother), but can burst through her shell quickly once she knows she's comfortable. She's very approachable and willing to help anyone in need. However, her temper is quite short (like her father) and heated arguments may arise..watch out! She is confident in herself and strives to achieves her goals. She is dedicated to her work, although procrastination can sneak up on her. Somehow, she gets things done. She is always laughing and smiling and living her life to the fullest!
