7 months

How did I get here? I am a mother of a 7 month old! Just yesterday I was pregnant and having contractions everynight waiting for my baby girl to finally arrive.... Now she is babbling, yelling, smiling, and pulling my hair! These past months feel like a whirlwind. They have gone by so fast, everyday blurring into the next. All the while I am saying, 'I can't wait till next month when Sadie will sleep better, or smile, or laugh, or play by herself, or crawl.' Now she does all that stuff, except crawl (although she is starting to butt scoot), and I can't believe we have passed all those mile stones already. She is so fun right now and I just want to soak it in. To sit still and enjoy her, and our life. I'll never get back this year of my life. The year I became a mother for the first time and all the good and hard things that came with it. The memories I will always hold close of my first baby.
