8 months old today!




Natalie is 8 months old! I have loved these last 2 weeks that I have been home with her! I have enjoyed every minute of it! She makes me smile, she brings so much happiness to our family. Well let's see, she is sitting up on her own for about 1 minute more or so before she will fall over. She is baby talking more, it is really cute! I will say ma-ma, or da-da and she will baby talk back! It brings a smile to my face! I love it! She is rolling over all by herself. Thanks so much for all of her therapist that have worked with her these past few weeks! They have helped Natalie to improve on her development and taught us ways that we can help her to sit up, roll over, grab a toy, hold a toy in both of her hands. We feel so blessed to have her in our lives. There are days that I am unable to get housework done....but you know what it's okay because I get the chance to spend the day with my sweet little lady. I get to make memories with her. There have been some days that she doesn't want to be put down for a nap by herself so we will cuddle and take a nap together. I LOVE it! Since I have been home with her, Nap time used to be 2-3 hour naps with the sitter now they are 30 minutes to 1 hour with me. She still sleeps through the night 9 to 11 hours. It is really nice! Being a mother has given be more patience. I really enjoy being a mother to my little sweet miracle!
