perfection

the best thing about you growing is there is more of you to love... and i love every single piece of you...i love your little toes, your perfect face, your tiny bum, and your long legs. i love the fuzzy hair you have and your beautiful ittybitty 2 bottom teeth. i love how you sound... your squeals, mamamamas and dadadadas, your laugh, and even your cry.

i love your touch....especially in the morning when you wake up and i pick you up and you lay your head on my shoulder for a long time. i love how you grab my boob like it is a sippy cup with handles and put it in your mouth. i love that you like to chew my hair and chin. i love how you feel all heavy and peaceful cradled in my arms asleep- that is the BEST. i love the big open mouth kisses you give me and i love kissing you all over, especially in your neck while you're having your diaper changed, it tickles and you crack up.

you are starting to stand up more and before long i know you will be on the move and not long after that your babieness will melt into toddler and poof these days are memories, but for now, for today i love you and marvel at you and thank God so very much for you, my baby. you are love. perfect. love.

My HAPPY girl

Brynners!

This pictures captures you so well. This is you right now, aren't you incredible?

You have been just so marvelously happy lately. You are getting so much bigger! You have a WONDERFUL sense of humor and we all crave your cute laugh!! Whoever gets you to laugh feels so proud and special. You are scooting in your walker so good, you really move! You like to grab things out of the dishwasher and lazy-susan, and you like to play with the garbage can and recycling things!!

I have snapped some of the most incredible pictures of you

lately and I just can't get over how beautiful you are and how much you are growing!!

This was your first time riding the snail and you liked it! You're a wild girl for sure! And you love outside.

We went to the Butterfly Pavilion last week and I couldn't believe this picture!

You look like such a big girl! Are you really this long??

And I love your rosy cheeks! This always happens when you get hot.

And how precious are your little baby fingers?!?!

It is these tiny simple little things that just make having a baby around that makes my day! You're the best!

Then you and brother were watching the bumble bees, it was so sweet. You look like two little old people sitting there together. You are becoming very good buddies. He is very into you now.

happy day.

9 Months!
