Deja Vu

Deja Vu

 
Okay, as previously mentioned, I had a baby. She fascinates me on so many levels. How she grows and learns is so interesting to see. So many new experiences to have. Imagine everythingbeing new. She approaches everything with no fear. No apprehension. Its almost as if on some level she knows she has to go through all the events.That idea got me thinking. As you watch a baby sleep they experience so much in their dreams. Their arms and legs flutter. They smile. They frown. They squeak and laugh. What do they dream about when they haven’t had all the life experiences we have as adults?

My favorite idea as to why they smile/laugh/cry/flutter in their dreams is that they are talking to angels. What a great concept! How beautiful the idea! After all, aren’t babies little pieces of Heaven?

I love this idea….but I push it further. What if they are indeed talking to angels, which in itself is great, but what if those angels are sharing all the upcoming life experiences to them. Somethings will happen to your child that will no doubt make you smile/laugh/cry/flutter. The angels may say something like “This is when you parents will get ill and this will make you sad” and then the baby frowns and cries. Or the angels state “Here is your daddy, he loves to make you laugh with all his silly faces” and the baby smiles.

If this were the case-angels could in fact tell you all of your life to come. You forget about these talks but as you go through these moments and experiences in life you sometimes get the feeling that you have already done that or been there. You experience deja vu.

How fantastic does that sound? I mean, they say your life is already planned out. Angels can help you prepare for these moments. How you in turn handle them is of course all up to you and the mindset in which you encounter them.

This is my new favorite theory and I wanted to share it with you. Do you love it? Even if you don’t, you should think about it the next time you watch a baby sleep.

Life will NEVER be the same

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!
