reflections

I can't believe I'm saying this... but Haley is 2 years old today. Where did the time go? It seems like just yesterday she was a tiny precious little baby with a conehead. :)





Now she's a sweet little girl. I've learned a lot in the past 2 years.

- It is possible to function on little to no sleep.

- Babies can poop 5 feet from their bottom.

- If your baby is a bad eater for a while, it doesn't mean she won't be a great eater later on.

- You can love a tiny little person so much it hurts.

- Breastfeeding HURTS for a while.

- You shouldn't give your breastfed baby a bottle unless you're prepared for the possibility of them preferring the bottle.

- It's not possible to take too many pictures of your baby.

- Your husband becomes a different person in some ways after having a baby, and it's incredible.

- Dora and SpongeBob are super annoying, but they can actually grow on you after a while.

- Not all kids start talking at the same age, and it's perfectly ok.


I could go on and on and on... Being a mom has been the best experience of my life. Haley is so sweet, cuddly, (can I say it?) beautiful, and so smart. She amazes us every day with something new she has learned. It's so much fun to watch her grow, and we're looking forward to many more birthdays!

Happy birthday, sweetheart. We love you more than life!
