It's a new year, here's where we are...

Well I can officially say my daughter was born LAST year. Holy cow. That makes it seem so long ago that I gave birth. So much has changed since we welcomed her into the world...

She is now a little over 3 months old. She has quite the little personality. It's beautiful to see how much she has changed. She smiles all the time now. When she sees me or Craig her whole face lights up. My favorite time of the day is right when she wakes up. All though it may be early, walking into her room and seeing the big grin appear on her face as soon as she notices me, makes my heart melt. She has almost laughed about a dozen times. It usually ends up just being a little chuckle. You can tell that she is trying so hard to let out a big laugh. She gets excited when she plays with her toys. She kicks her legs and squeals with delight. She's discovered that she can scream! As soon as she does it once, the screams just keep coming. She grabs things now. Anything that touches her hand, she grasps. If she sees an object in front of her she slowly move her hands towards it and bring it to her mouth. And she drools ALL THE TIME! Her doctor assures us she's not teething yet. To simply put it, a baby doesn't know it's not socially acceptable to just let your mouth hang open and slobber, so why not! I know all of theses things are just the normal 3 month old milestones, but especially with your first baby it's so exciting to witness all these new developments.

We also recently moved. Back home again, in INDIANA!! We are now only 1 hour away from everyone we know! We're still getting readjusted here and Craig is getting used to his new job, but I know soon (as we always do) we'll be settled.

A big thing I want to work on for myself in this new year is not living with regret. Unfortunately there are many things in my life that I wish had went differently. I''m a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. It may take me a while to realize why certain things happened... but life is all about learning as you go. Not constantly second guessing yourself.

Still a work in progress.

 

 


It's hard work being this cute all the time...



Have you ever seen a more beautiful face?!
