well here we are at week 7 day 3 and i can hardly believe how much this little girl is growing. she is really really wanting to talk these days. she takes a big breath and then tries to turn it into a sound and she gets really wiggly and excited at the prospect of being such a big girl. she LOVES oliver. everytime he comes around her, he just wants to snuggle and love her and she gets so smiley. i can tell they are going to be great friends. she has always been really strong and loves to stand up and lift her head all on her own. she is still sleeping great at night, usually just waking up once to eat. she is pretty easy-going except for at night between about 7 to 10 when she has her fussy time. she still hates her car seat but is learning. we're hoping she'll make our drive to utah for thanksgiving bearable:) i've learned that combining the car seat with fussy time is a deadly combination. but actually after about 5 minutes of screaming she's over it and calms down. oliver never let up that fast so we are already hoping for easier sleep training when we cross that bridge. it's pretty amazing to think for 9 months what she'll be like and then before you know it she's here and she's just what we always hoped for. her daddy is especially smitten.
ohhhh! i cant wait for thanksgiving! can i call first dibs on amelie snuggle time? or second if first has already been called? :)
and that last picture of her totally reminds me of kate for some reason. maybe they will grow up to look alike.. even though she is definitely a facer baby!
Welcome to our blog! Hopefully you will enjoy looking at fun pictures and stories from our lives. Ryan and I got married in December 2005 and we have a son named Oliver, and two daughters Amelie and Nora. Ryan works as a Facilities Manager for Dreamworks while I get to stay at home with our beautiful kids. I also work as a birth doula which is something I love deeply. Life is pretty wonderful to say the least. Gratitiude is something we try to strive for in our family, and recognizing where and who those blessings come from. We can't wait for what the future holds for us...stay tuned for future adventures.
We are eternally tied to one another, mind, body, and soul
We both see the beautiful things of every day life
We genuinely prefer each other over everyone else. He is my favorite person to talk to
We see eye to eye on the most important things. And if we don't on some of the small things it just gives life enough spice to never be boring. Ryan calls it my passionate side:)
You know when you try to show someone a beautiful song or movie and you just want them to love it like you do? That's our life together
We love pretty much all the same things, seriously, we might be the same person
We love to serve
When we were dating, I wrote a list of "miracles" that happened to bring us together, there are 71 listed but still so many more
We literally have the same thoughts...sometimes a little scary
The first night we kissed we knew we were always going to be together
