Hi there. I've really slacked with these monthly updates! However, we've been busy falling down stairs, falling out of highchairs, this mommy's trip to the ER (knife vs. hand fiasco)..you know, typical toddler stuff. Toddler! I seriously can't get used to saying that yet. We no longer live life with an infant. We now live with a crazy, silly, smart, loud (did I say crazy?) toddler.
The last of Layla's baby gear has officially been packed up. The mountain of outgrown clothes & itty bitty baby stuff is growing each month. Our lawn drying rack that used to be covered in bottles & pump parts is now cluttered with plates & spoons & sippy cups. We have entered a new stage and I am so proud of all that Layla has learned and continues to learn day by day.
Layla brings so much joy to our life every single day. She is such a free spirit & I love seeing her so happy. I remember the sleepless, whirlwind days with a colicky newborn. I remember saying, she is miserable! She's just a miserable baby! (Oh the crazy that hormones & lack of sleep brings, la la la...).Remembering back on those hard months makes this current time with her so much more fun. I appreciate the good days because we had some really rough days.
She loves dancing ('Uptown Funk' anyone?), Sesame Street, and her furry siblings. She loves to talk, the louder the better! She can probably eat her weight in food on the daily. Books are her favorite!
We love you so much baby girl. Thank you for teaching us so much about ourselves, about patience, and the value of every day. I pray you always stay as vivacious & outgoing as you are now.
You will move mountains sweet cheeks!
