Twinkle Twinkle Little Star ... How I Wonder What You Are

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.......Our little Wonder is over a month old already. She is alert, expressive, and even smiling although I've not had the chance to capture it in many pictures. The other day while making supper I had to grab my camera because she was posing for me. It's busy but I love when I get to cuddle her close and watch her eyes flicker to sleep. She curls in, slows her breathing and sleeps like an angel skin to my skin. If ever I could pause time. Instead I take a deep breath and try to burn that smell into my memory... Try to remember just how small she is... How delicate.... How soft.....How she looks into my eyes and knows its me but knows little else in all the world..... I try to make it stick because I know it will be no time at all before she's running around, jumping off couches and pointing at and announcing every ball and lightbulb in sight; always hoping for a cookie.








She's Here!

It's a girl! Mercy Belle came into the world on October 9th, a week late. River has a sister. She is perfect. Dark hair. Dark blue eyes. Good lungs! This is late. But here she is, courtesy of LisaLandrie.com. Our family of 3 became 4. Life is a juggling act. But I can't stop falling in love with my baby girl.
