This post is about my sweetheart Nellie. Since she's been born i haven't blogged much...about anything, so i want to tell you about this little girl of mine.
She's so soft. Everything about her is soft
Her smile melts mine, and her daddy's, hearts
she loves her brother. He makes her smile
She ALWAYS wakes up happy
She ALWAYS wakes up happy
She's been sitting since 5 months, but doesn't feel the need to roll over. (my kids seem to not feel the need to move, at all really, for the first 8 months...)
She's my little copy-cat. If you make noises she copies you, if you move your head, she moves hers too
She loves music and she loves to dance. Singing sooths her, she likes to move her head with music, its very cute
She loves the baby bjorn. I had a hard time finding the right carrier for her, but the Bean's let us borrow the Bjorn and she LOVES it.
and last but not least....
She's a momma's girl. I love this about her. I feel bad because she doesn't always like other people. She wants me. If she's sitting in a room, or laying, she watches my every move and is sad when i leave. She likes me to hold her... a lot...she's happy for me (most of the time) and she LOVES when i carry her around in the baby Bjorn. Sometimes its hard that i can't leave her, but mostly i kind of like being needed, it makes me feel loved. Jack was the opposite, i know he loves me, but he didn't need me. He's just as happy with me as he is with the next guy, or girl :). Jack's always loved strangers and will go to anybody. And if he's sad, or mad at me, he just starts crying for Daddy, or Grandma, or Debbie, or anybody really. He's not so attached. And thats okay. I love that about him actually, i love that he's so good with strangers, he has a gift for making EVERYBODY feel loved. and i'm grateful for that. But that's what makes me really enjoy my clingy baby. So for everybody out there, don't feel bad if you look at her and she cries...its nothing personal and i'm sure she'll grow out of it, but for now, she's just making her mommy feel loved.
I never new being a mother would be so amazing. I seriously love my kiddo's. I don't know what i'd do without them. Yes, they can be challenging, but the happy times far outweigh the challenging ones. John and I have seriously been so blessed.

I love that sweet little girl. Can't wait to get a little hug before she needs her mama again. Then I'll just work on Jack. See you soon
Give them both a hug from Grandma P. They are so cute.
