Okay, so I realized lately that I have this thought everyday: I have the best husband and the best daughter, so I am living the best life possible. These are just words to express a thought, but the feeling is deep and I really believe it. It could be border line prideful perhaps because that means I think everyone else is not experiencing the best ever, but I bet other people feel this way too. But maybe don't tell me that-I would like to think I really am just living the good life. Cause I am.
Some favorites from the past month:
Shiloh has found her hands and she loves them! She brings them together in front of her and just stares. She gets extra cute points for doing this while breastfeeding. It's so funny to me how taken she is by her beautiful hands.
And you know what else? This little girl rolled over for the first time like 3 weeks ago! She has done it a couple times since then, but mainly just likes to get up on her side.
Doesn't sound like very impressive feats, right? WRONG! It was the most honorable, amazing talent I have ever seen when Shiloh rolled over. And I mean it! So funny how a seemingly little thing causes me to feel so proud.
Ever heard a gibbon? If you live in Waco and have gone to the Cameron Park Zoo, they are the monkey-like creatures at the front of the zoo. And they make all those crazy sounds and you think "how do they do that?" That is how I feel about Shiloh's talking. She just makes so many different sounds-my favorite being her high-pitched squeal. She rarely wakes us up with crying anymore, but rather cooing and half-laughs. It's the best.
Forgive me if I talk in extremities too much. It's the only way I can express the feelings that I think might explode out of me sometimes.
Have you ever felt like a rush of endorphins or something like that to your brain? I feel that sometimes before I pick up Shiloh. It's a rush, truly. I think it is so awesome that God has made my body to react that way to something I love so much. I just want to squeeze her, but I don't do that anymore because she spits up on me:)
Here are some pictures from this past month for your viewing pleasure:
I walked into the living room one day and found Shiloh sleeping on her side-look at that little bundle!
And again the next day:)
Shiloh got dressed up to visit her friends at the zoo
I know it's blurry, but too cute not to post. She loves Peek and Squeak! (the elephant)
JJ came all the way from Longview to visit us and come to Zumba!
We think it is funny (and kind of scary at the same time) when she makes her "big eyes"
3 months old!
Playing with her mermaid and fascinated by her hands at the same time
This video makes us chuckle, what about y'all?
