Life will NEVER be the same

 
Way back in September I mentioned that we were expecting. I had a bit of a bumpy journey through pregnancy, but I enjoyed every single minute of it. I carried my child to 38wks! Thats pretty darn good for someone with placenta previa. The result was a beautiful baby girl.
On Monday, February 7, 2011 at 5:14pm we welcomed Isabelle Kyrie to the world. She weighed in at 7lb 11oz and was 20 1/2 inches long. She was a very alert baby. Very curious to everything and everyone around her in the delivery room. From the start to where we are to day (four months later) she has slept well throughout the night. She started to lift her head on her own on day three in the hospital.Izzie was able to come home on Friday of that week. We were still in search of a home-so she got to come back to a one bedroom apartment. She didn’t seem to mind the change in environment at all. My husband and I were able to watch her as her world came into focus. IT is an amazing thing to be able to do. Your heart melts when your child holds on to you for support and encouragement.

As a mother my connection to my daughter started during pregnancy. I never thought it was possible to have so much love and devotion to anything in life. It seems like she is the reason I was meant to be. She is really the center of my universe. She makes me happy, calms me down, and overall fascinates me. I hope the idea that I have so much dedication to her and love for her does not result in a child that gets everything. (she has the cutest smile) the first smile I was able to capture on film.

Now she is sitting, scooting, drooling, grabbing, babbling and we can’t get enough of it. She has a cute little personality. She has mastered the worried look, the smile, and the smirk! I adore it. Everyday it seems she figures another thing out. Looking to everyone to teach her something new. I wish I was that eager to learn still.

She has grown like a weed. Here we are at 4mos and she is already wearing clothing for 6-9mos. We go back to the doctor today for a check up. I cant wait to hear where she comes in now.

I am loving life with my new family. We will close it with one of my favorite pics of Daddy & his little girl. Thanks for letting me share!
