New Pictures



I LOVE my girls. I love playing with my girls too. This first picture is Lil Bit and me playing a new game. She was chewing on her toes, so I thought I would play along. You can't see, but we were really giggling. We have a different game that we play with her paci. She's such a tease. LOL

The next picture shows how well Lil Bit is starting to move. She scoots herself around, usually backwards. This time, she managed to get herself under the pack and play and couldn't figure out how to get out. Sweet Pea decided she wanted to be in the picture too. I guess I added her for comparison's sake. I love my girls.

Lil Bit is so funny. I think she's about a week, maybe two, away from crawling on her hands and knees. Today, she said "Mam-mam." I'm not making it up, because Sweet Pea heard it too. It just makes my heart melt. :)

Erma Bombeck once wrote an essay on what she would do differently if she could do it all again. One thing that she said stuck out and has stayed with me. She said she would enjoy pregnancy. I understand that now. With Sweet Pea, I was simply pregnant and since it was the first one, I was just excited. With Lil Bit, I've grown up. I feel like I had so much more time to enjoy being pregnant. I feel like I have time to enjoy her growing up and all of her milestones. I also feel like maybe I cheated Sweet Pea of that time by having to work. But....... with the fact that I enjoy Lil Bit so much, I'm also learning to enjoy Sweet Pea.

Well, that's all I have for tonight. I'd better get to bed so that I'm fresh for more enjoyment tomorrow. ROFLOL

Only 7 more Sundays till Dale comes home! Whopee!

  4. Yeah, you're gonna be getting some "whopee" when Dale comes home! ;) (Hope that didn't embarrass you!) I'm so glad that you are learning more about Becca through Gracie. That's really exciting to see. I know you love both of your girls so much. Can't wait to see you! You'll be here before we know it!
    love you much,
