You make ME happy too


I never get tired of snuggles.

I know I've already posted about how magical Kailey's smile is, but really I just can't get over it. When we go into her room to change her diaper, I look down and all I see are these big blue grey eyes beaming up at me. I know just the right cooing noises to get a coo or a smile from her, and I make sure to do it every time. You see, it never gets old, and my heart melts every single time. This morning she even let out an excited shriek. It left me feeling quite excited honestly...but don't worry, I didn't shriek :) As she was cooing and getting happier staring up at me I kept thinking about how happy she makes me feel too. what a blessing to be a Mama.


I can't believe tomorrow she will be 8 weeks old. It's kind of strange how 8 weeks doesn't translate into two months, but she will be just that on Monday. I can see how much she's changed looking at older pictures. Nick and I have both noticed just how big she's gotten when we see the other holding her. Eight weeks ago I was terrified of being a mother, today I know just how to get my daughter to smile. I'm still a bit worried about ruining such a perfect little human being, but there are some things only time will help us let go of.

So, I may have an opportunity to teach yoga where I was taking prenatal yoga classes. I will be making a resume and calling the woman who posted the ad on Craigslist. I'm pretty nervous and excited to be sharing my passion with students. You can bet I'll be brushing up on my yoga poses!

Today I told someone, "Remember to have self control and then you will have self confidence." Sometimes I can't believe the things that come out of me. I didn't realize I felt that way, but man is it so true. We are so self confident when we are self aware and controlled. I guess to be too controlled wouldn't be any fun, but anything in moderation, right?!?



I caught a good smile :)
