And Fay has been just a picture perfect baby. She wakes up smiling and loves whistling. She naps and eats on schedule, and I can't get over how amazing she is. Her personality is coming through, and her laugh makes my heart sing. Also, for all those people out there that say you shouldn't put your baby in your bed, they are stupid. 99% of the time she sleeps in her crib but sometimes in the morning I bring her into our room and tuck her into bed. I love hearing her sweet sounds, and she likes to hold hands under the covers. I TREASURE this time...Dave snapped this picture over the weekend. I love it...
This picture just makes me laugh.
I also find myself living in the moment so much more than I used to. We are not focused on the future the way we used to be. All the things we had been planning for are here, a house, our own company, a child, and a happy marriage. Of course we still make plans for trips and dream about renovating the house, or buying a new car. But mainly I just wake up every day and enjoy my family. She will snuggle up into my neck and let out these sweet sighs and really that's all I want. I know this time is going to go so quickly...she will only be a baby for such a short time. I want to take in every bit of it.
I am so thankful that I am not working...I don't think I could stand not being the most important person in her world. She is certainly the center of our universe. There is no doubt that we are a loved and blessed family. Praise the Lord.
PS. She got her first round of shots on Tuesday and she weighed 9lbs 6oz! Still in her newborn clothes, but not for long!
