going on two months

These newborn months of her life have gone by so quickly. I didn't have that strong feeling of love come immediately with her like I did with my first two. I'm not sure what the difference was, maybe I was just so relieved that she was healthy when she was born from the complications I had during my pregnancy.  But in the past two months I have had those same feelings come to me just as strong. I love her sweet demeanor, her bright eyes, the calm spirit she has. Having two older siblings around to keep me busy means that the time I have just with her feels even more special. I love those moments where I get to nurse her in peace and hold her while she sleeps.

Here are a few things I want to never forget, how her tiny body looks as she stretches out after she wakes, hands behind her neck, belly pushed out, fitted perfectly to lay on my chest, the sweet noises she makes when she's sleeping, her little sunshine eyes when she smiles, how her cheeks are so full they hang off the frame of her face.

  1. She is so perfect!!

    I love studying our little girl and trying to memorize the tiny things she does that I love. She's growing so quickly, and I just want to soak all of it up.

  4. So sweet! I also have 3 kids and remember those precious quiet moments alone. Things aren't so quiet now that my youngest is three! I love the fabric hoops above your change table too :)

  6. I totally understand what you mean about the connecting part. It was the exact same way with McKay. I think it was because he was my third and i thought he was going to be a girl. There were so many times that I would look at him and wonder if he was really mine because it just didn't seem real. Strange feeling, but so real. But like you said, the connection comes and I think because they are our third you do appreciate the little things so much more and you treasure them. The third definitely through me for a loop in mothering and adjusting time and everything, but what a blessing they are. I LOVE your pictures!!!
