Stuff happens

And before you know it, nearly two more months have gone by. I don’t realize how fast she is growing until I’m clearing out stuff from the drawers that doesn’t fit her anymore. I look back at photos from the day she was born, and remember how I was afraid I would never get to this place… where I am confident, where I feel like a good mother, where I can see her happy to see me. Now when I pick her up at daycare, and she smiles and reaches for me… I think: yeah, I can see that tomorrow will definitely be even better than today.

But, the past six months? Man, what a whirlwind. This baby, let me sum her up for you:

Oh my gosh, will we ever sleep again?

*blink*

Yay, four hours of sleep!

*blink*

Aw, a smile! And she babbles!

*blink*

Yay! She rolled over!

*blink*

Her first fever. Will we ever sleep again?

*blink*

Yay! Six hours of sleep!

*blink*

Giggles?!? OMG, giggles are the best thing ever!

*blink*

She can sit up on her own now? She couldn’t do that yesterday. What happened?

*blink*

A tooth?!? What?
