a letter to my daughters.


To my two bundles:
Dear Hazel,
Mommy is so proud of what a big girl you have become. The leaps and bounds you have taken this month have been astounding.  You continue to surprise me everyday.  I love the fact that you are such a funny child. You constantly have us cracking up with your silly antics and the hilarious things you say.  One of your biggest admirers at the moment is your sister.  She watches you non stop and I think she gives you the most smiles.  I can already see what an amazing bond the two of you will have and it warms my heart knowing you will have each other.
Dear Lola,
I continue to say what an amazing baby you are.  You are just so relaxed and happy.  This month you are full of smiles and giggles. Oh do I love those giggles.  You have also begun to roll over on your side and just yesterday you rolled from tummy to back for the first time.  You just love to sit up and watch the world around you.  I think you will be sitting up on your own very soon.  This past month you have also begun to babble and “talk” quite a bit.  We have had some great conversations and I see many long “girl” talks with your sister in the future.  Your are my little peanut and you are growing up too fast.  Please just slow down a little, so I can take in every moment.
I love you both so very much.
xoxo, Mommy

4 months.

We keep telling her to stop growing, but she is just not listening!  Our peanut turned four months old.  I just love snapping pictures of her and admiring those baby blues.  This month Lola is working hard on tummy time and we are hoping to see some rolling soon.

her carseat

Mommy likes...
How Lola kicks her legs in the morning when you pick her up out of her crib.
She is always so excited to see you!  Melts my heart.
