Getting Big...

Good Morning everyone!

These pictures are really more for my family anf friends in Saskatchewan.

So now they have no reason to complain!

Here is another cute one from the photo shoot a couple of weeks ago.
This is what she is currently doing!

This was from yesterday...look at that pouty bottom lip!

Getting SO big.

She was upset so Wade started to read to her and she went silent and just stared at him.

haha you can barely see Ruger (he blends into our couch)

See just staring away at Dad.

In one of her new outfits from Aunty Mandy!

And another one from the shoot a couple weeks ago. So there you have it.. has she grown?!

I got an e-mail this morning with this little poem with it and it explains exactly how I feel about being a mother

Before I was a mom

I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby.

I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous.

I never thought about immunizations.

Before I was a mom

I had never been puked on.

Pooped on.

Chewed on.

Peed on.

I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts.

I slept all night.

Before I was a mom

I never held down a screaming child so doctors could do tests.

Or give shots.

I never looked into teary eyes and cried.

I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.

I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep.

Before I was a mom

I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to put her down.

I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I couldn't stop the hurt.

I never knew something so small could affect my life so much.

I never knew that I could love someone so much.

I never knew I would love being a mom.

Before I was a mom

I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body.

I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby.

I didn't know that bond between a mother and her child.

I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so important and happy.

Before I was a mom

I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay.

I had never known the warmth,

the joy,

the love,

the heartache,

the wonderment,

or the satisfactionof being a mom.

I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much,

before I was a mom.

I really enjoyed that little poem today. Well hope everyone is doing okay! I better get going I have a little one calling my name!

Until next time!
