"She" being our little girl who is growing by jumps and leaps- I swear she is going to start talking and walking tomorrow! Andrea and Matt's little one should be here either tonight or tomorrow morning, and that has reminded me of the oh so wonderful labor pains and the tiny little baby that it produced. That little baby does not exsist anymore, and in place of this tiny little baby, there is a smiling little girl who loves to blow raspberries and giggle when her daddy blows on her belly. It is amazing to me how much a baby can grow in almost 4 month, and makes me want to stop wishing away the days. I find myself constantly urging Grace to reach different milestones, thinking about how much fun it will be when she starts talking, and always thinking of the future. I now realize it is more important to live in the now, and to enjoy every second I have with Grace and our little family. When other people are bragging about what milestone their child has reached, I will be enjoying the little things, all of the smiles, and the way she lights up when I pick her up from daycare. This is what is important, and I will encourage Andrea and Matt to do the same! I can't wait to meet their little girl and to share in all the same joys they have been able to experience with us and Grace. Here is a new picture of our pudgy little lady- look at those cheeks!
