Nothing But Pure Squish.

It's 10p.m.
Instead of:
Doing laundry
Washing dishes
Going to sleep early
I:
Breathe in my baby.
Survey her perfect body.
Give her all of the attention that I can possibly give.
Yes, 10p.m. in our house means Jake and I chat on and on about how perfect she is for our family, how lucky we are and how much we needed her. After she's bathed, lotioned, dressed in warm cotton, wrapped in a flannel blanket and rocked to sleep, I manage to eek out a few piles of clean clothes to be put away in the morning. Before she wakes up.

She's just too cute. I miss that sweet smell of baby - not enough to do anything about it though.

I know what you're saying. My fave is when they are cooing and generally trying to chat with you. I just can't ever walk away from Oliver when he is doing that!

Lilly is adorable. She's looking older to me in this pic!

She looks so in place on this blog. Like she's always been here - as if you've always had a little 3 month old baby gracing posts on here.

She's beautiful Sarah. And somehow this routine sounds so familiar to me too:) Next time I'm doing this, I'll think of you doing the same...and know that my house has a sink full of dishes too.

Oh Sara...can you even belieeeeeve how much you freakin luv her? Reese makes me melt into goo. She thinks I am the most awesome mom and is obsessed with me. i think she wants to suck my face to death. And she is rolling over. and her hair is finally lying down. YOUR baby is beautiful. I am so grateful that we have healthy babies. I just wish I hada healthy 6 pack. i swear I have hit rock bottom. I am officially my fattest. Its very sad. Oh well!
