CAN'T GET BACK THOSE NEWBORN DAYS..............

LILY LUNA WAS BORN TODAY!!


Today we went to visit Julie in the hospital so we can meet baby Lily. She was so small and Niah looked like a monster compared to her. I can't believe Niah was ever that small. It was s sweet t see them side by side. It makes me wonder where this friendship will lead. Life long friends? I think so.


What I would so to hold my newborn again. I will never get that back again and that is hard to take in. Syniah is growing so fast and and her features are changing everyday. It's crazy! Niah is a very happy baby. She smiles more and more everyday and her personality is really developing. She is no longer a newborn but she is turning out to be one amazing baby girl! She is so beautiful. I thank God everyday for blessing us. In no time I will be back at work and all these sweet baby moments will only be a memory. I am definitely soaking it all in. I really can't believe 3 months has past since she was swaddled in my arms. 

Time flies when you are having fun.........

Our Princess



Today Syniah looked like the most beautiful princess. We took her to take her 3 month pictures today and she wore her pretty dress with her ballet slippers but before that she was such a diva wearing her pink summer outfit with her hat and glasses! Gosh...... she brightens up our lives so much. All day today Ervin and I were so proud of our beautiful baby we kept staring at her and telling her how beautful she looked. She was so happy today. She did a really great job during the photoshoot. I can't believe how in love we are with her. She definitely completes us. I couldn't imagine life without her. She is already 3 months....... I have only been a Mom for 3 months but she is growing so fast.
Our AMAZING GRACE....................

Where would I be without my Monkey?


Today Syniah was craving so much attention! We just stayed home today and watched movies and played. She didn't want to be put down. She seamed to eat so much today also. It's funny how she can be so upset but once we pick her up she starts giggling! Today Daddy took care of Syniah while I cleaned and washed clothes. Sometimes I can't do anything with Syniah so I seamed to be behind on the house chores lately.
Syniah is a very needy baby. She consumes all my time and there are days where I can't even take a shower but when I think about my life last year at this time and I think about my life now. I wouldn't change it for the world. She is my Monkey. She has showed me love that I have never experienced in my life and I am beginning to realize its just the love a mother has for her child. I can't imagine my life without her. As I put her to sleep tonight and watched her. I think how absolutely perfect is she? How was I blessed with such a perfect baby? She is perfect and God knew exactly what he was doing when he choose Syniah to be my daughter because she has made me the happiest Mama in the world. She is my high maintenance monkey! I figure that I will hear lots of people give me their opinion and tell me that she is way too spoiled but she is "my" daughter! I will never get these baby days back again and she will only be this small once so I can't help but to spoil her. I love to just hold her and talk to her. There is no greater joy than to see your baby smile at you and I take pride in that. So when I ask myself where would I be without my Monkey? The answer is this...... incomplete and definitely not this happy :)

My baby in her bassinet..... Isn't she such a cute chunky girl?

Just another lazy Sunday...

Syniah is 3 months and 1 week old today!
 
I still am not feeling well. My throat is scratchy and I feel under the weather. Syniah was a little cranky today! I walked around the house with her a lot today. She just needed to be soothe. She wanted to be in the arms and talked to. I can't stress enough how big she is getting. She is growing right before my eyes but I can't seam to take it all in. What happen to the tiny baby I brought home? The one that I thought would never fit into the clothes in her closet? Now she is outgrowing the clothes in her closet and I got sad today when I had to put more clothes away in a box.
Today I realized that I really love bath time with Syniah. She gets so excited no matter what kind of mood she was in before the bath. She has this habit of pushing herself down so her feet dangle over her bath chair and so she can splash. I have to pick he up and sit her right only for her to push herself right back down again. I love to talk to her in the bath and then wrap her up and squeeze her in her towel and watch her laugh. Bath time has become our special time. After Niah's bath today she took lots of cat naps. Just when I thought she was sleeping and I could clean or take a nap myself she would wake up. I think her teeth are bothering her. I gave her teething tablets before bed. Hope it helps. Today was a pretty blah day. Maybe tomorrow Syniah and I will be feeling better. I love her so much. She is my little monkey.

Hope I actually get rest tonight. Syniah has been waking up every hour or two these past couple night. Only Gods knows what is in store for me tonight.....................

My Beautiful baby....

Syniah started to grab and play with a toy today, all on her own. 




She is getting so big so fast. Its crazy! I wish I could keep her small forever. Gosh I love her. She really is a mama's girl. She follows me with her eyes when I walk past her. She flaps her hands and her feet when I come near here super excited. I love her. Today Syniah and I aren't feeling too well. I have strep throat and Syniah has a fever. I turned on some worship music and I danced with her to Beautiful by Shawn McDonald. I started to get teary eyed. I can't believe I have been blessed with this beautiful baby. That God choose me to be her Mama. It's hard to take in but I am amazed everyday by the love I have for her and all the love she gives in return. She completes me. God is good! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Title: Beautiful
As I look into the stars Pondering how far away they are How You hold them in Your hands And still You know this man You know my inner most being, oh Even better than I know, than I know myself What a beautiful God What a beautiful God And what am I, that I might be called Your child What am I, what am I That You might know me, my King What am I, what am I, what am I As I look off into the distance
Watching the sun roll on by
Beautiful colors all around me, oh Painted all over the sky The same hands that created all of this They created you and I What a beautiful God What a beautiful God And what am I, that I might be called Your child What am I, what am I That You might know me, my King
What am I, what am I That You might die, that I might live
What am I, what am I, what am I, what am I What am I What am I What am I What am I What am I
