Oh, Man...

I decided I needed to blog tonight because it's been forever and a day since I last posted.  I'm sorry.  I just have a few things that keep me occupied during the day.

But when I sat down to do it, I didn't know what to write about.

So, as I was uploading a bunch of photos to show off to you, I had this overwhelming sense of how in love with my baby I am. 

So, I'm going to talk about that.
Holy Moly.  Those two, right there...  They are my world.
Striped baby legs!  Look at her thighs...yummy.  So cute.
The feet.  They kill me.
They are just so plump and soft and adorable and if my feet looked like that, it wouldn't be cute.  I should know because they did when I was ten months pregnant.  It was not cute.  But these little baby feet are. so. cute.
Sometimes, I look at her and she looks so big!  Look at her sitting on her daddy's lap ~ all grown-up-like.  With the feet.
For heaven's sake, she's grabbing and holding onto things now.

But it's only been three months!  Time, please stop.
What, Bear???  What are you singing at?  You freak me out, with the way you start singing when I wave my arms at you.
Look at all the different shades of pink in this picture!  You may think it's ugly.  I think it's part of the beauty of having a little girl.  PINK.  When I got her dressed, I basically pulled all the pink out of her drawers that I could find.  Mission accomplished.
See, this is what makes my heart stop.
She takes my breath away.
All day.  Every day.
Mmmm, Bumbo Seat.  Yum.
Grunt.  Grunt.  ...Trying to sit back up...
 The tray helps me sit up!  I love my Sophie le girafe.
But what the heck is this?  A caterpillar, you say?  Hmmmm....
Oh, hi Mom!
Be still my heart.
Whatchu lookin' at, Caterpillar?
You know you're a Mommy when drool doesn't gross you out.  Even when you wipe it away with your bare hand.  Even when you kiss your baby on the lips that are covered in drool.

Yes, I do that.  What?
Must. Touch. Gramma's. Face.
Spider-Baby!  

If you are a parent, you know exactly where I'm coming from. It's just that every part of me loves her just the way she is.  We'll see how I feel in about 21 months.  Ha!

Cute pictures! It's amazing how time flies. Hopefully soon I'll get to experience the same parental feelings you have. Knowing how much I love my nephews I can't even imagine what it's like when they're your own!

You will still love her just the way she is but you will not be able to wait until her bed time each night so you can lay on the couch and relax!

You'll still love her just as much and you'll still kiss her on those cute little baby lips only instead of drool it'll be left over food from dinner!! AND you'll anxiously await bedtime (I agree with Alexis) and you'll think back and long for the days when she was 3 months old and she let you hold her and snuggle with her all day :) When that happens you know it's time for another one!!! :)at

Trust me, you'll love her even more in 21 months, which you probably can't even imagine, but somehow it will happen.
