I Say the Same Thing Every Month, But ...

I can't believe my teeny-tiny newborn is nine months old today. Where did the time go?

She is such a sweet, happy girl. When she smiles her whole face lights up. She has the most adorable laugh I have ever heard. It looks like her hair is developing a bit of wave (I would love it if she got my curls). Her little legs and belly are delightfully squishy. Aren't fat babies just the best?

I love that little girl more than I can ever begin to say. I am so thankful that she is sealed to her mommy and daddy! Roo thinks her parents are the best things ever. In the last video I got, she kept looking from one to the other, as though she couldn't decide which one to smile at.

I remember that when I met P and M, I liked them so much that I was very happy for them to get a baby, even though it would be my baby.

I still feel that way. I am so happy that they have not one but two sweet girls in their family. They are the best parents a birth mom could hope for. I don't think I say that enough, but it's true.

I think that's it for now :o)

9 months wow. Hard to believe that in 3 months she will be a year old. That is a big mile stone. I think about you often and wonder how you are doing. I only have 5 weeks of school left and hope to get to group soon after. I just love your blog!
