Slow down time!

People told me while I was pregnant that I would fall in love with my daughter, I just didn't realize how much they meant. The past three months have gone by so incredibly fast that I can hardly believe it. The once baby newborn girl who hardly opened her eyes has transformed into a loving and active three month who is ready to explore the world around her! I can remember placing all 6 lbs of her in the bassinett beside my bed, now I place her 12 lbs body in a crib down the hall. She once slept all day and now I am lucky if it's 2 naps which are often too short for me to get much done. There was a time when I was scared to bathe her because I felt like I was going to break her. Now I take her in the shower with me each morning and she plays in her tub. Time just seems to be going bye so quickly!

This little angle was sent from God and she means the world to me. It breaks my heart when she wakes up in her crib and cries because she doesn't know where I am. I hurry into the room and reassure her "Mommy's here. Did you have a good sleep? I love you!" I pick up her still tiny body and hold it close to me, give her head a kiss and whisper that I love her. Each smile she makes and little noise that comes from her warms my heart and makes me so proud. I am her mom, she is my daughter... we have a bond like no other.

Three short months, that's all it has been, and I can't remember life without her. My once busy days have turned into ones revolved around her. When does she need to eat? When is it nap time? Oh well, guess I won't get groceries today! But that's okay because one look in her little eyes and I can hold off on groceries or whatever was on my to-do list. Sommer is most important. I know time will continue to fly bye and in a few years I won't know where it went. I cherish each day I get with her because you never know what time will bring. Being a Mommy is the best feeling in the world!
