7 months ago

Hannah is 7 months old today! I feel like a broken record, but I can't believe how fast time flys.  I can still remember the day I had her, the day we brought her home, the day(s) I turned to Jeff with tear filled eyes saying how exhausted I was and asked him if it were okay we only had one child.  The beginning seemed to move along slowly (and not always in a good way).  I took things one day at a time, but each day I hoped Hannah would eat a little more, sleep a little more and cry a little less.  Living each day holding her, feeding her, changing her, napping when she napped or being up around the clock.  Looking back it's all a big blur.  I've forgotten the details of what happened in those first three months, but I remember enough to be able to say it was hard.  It's amazing though how I can clearly remember how difficult it was yet still look forward to having another baby one day.  Kinda funny how that works.  And now, now Hannah is 7 months old and I look at our little baby thinking she's not so little anymore.  She's turning into a "big girl" and it's all happening so fast!  She's taking drinks from my water glasses, sipping from her sippy cup, eating all sorts of baby foods, indirectly saying "ma ma", "da da", becoming increasingly fascinated with the dog and sitting up on her own.  No teeth yet, but since I'm so bad about posting I'm sure by the time I get around to posting something again she'll have a few.
