Where has the time gone???? Seriously...I can not believe four months have already passed since we welcomed our sweet baby girl into the world! I love watching her grow, each new thing she does, and the thought of all of her "firsts"...but I would be lying if I said a little piece of me is not a little sad when I put another one of her outfits in storage that she has out grown. It just goes by way too fast! I love every minute I spend with her and I look forward to all the special things in her future. She is still doing great at the Kidd Academy. The other day when I dropped her off was the first time she actually looked back at me and stuck out her lip and started to cry. It broke my heart. Of course she only cried for a few minutes...but still. She is really starting to notice things and she loves to look at herself in the mirror. Bath time is really fun because she has a ball splashing and wiggling in the water. She has also started to hold on to her toys and things a lot better. She is still working on hand control...sometimes she tries to bring her toys up to her mouth and she ends up whacking herself in the head...but she is definitely making progress. She is a WIGGLE WORM and changing her is getting more and more challenging. She is a busy little thing. She LOVES being talked to and she tries to talk back. Knox has become a "person" of interest to her lately and she giggles when he licks her feet. It is so cute! We are having so much fun with her and she is such a good baby. She goes to bed around 7:30 or 8:00 now and she sleeps until somewhere between 5-7 am. (typically) So we feel pretty blessed. Getting her to nap for very long during the day is not always easy...but she is a great sleeper at night.
We are leaving for Tennessee next week and I am very excited! I haven't been there in over 2 months and I can't wait to see my family and celebrate Thanksgiving. Scout will get to meet a lot of her cousins that she hasn't met yet. 28 great-grandkids (if my counting is correct) so there are lots of kids! We are hoping to leave Monday night so Scout will sleep on the way. It still seems crazy that it is already Thanksgiving. The next several weekends are booked for us already....I love this time of year...but man is it ever busy! Scout and I had a little photo shoot yesterday and today...hope you all enjoy the pictures. (I never take her picture...poor thing!) I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving Holiday and safe travels!
Sweet Baby Scout,
We are so very thankful for you! I love every second I spend with you and your sweet smile makes everyday a better day! We thank God for blessing us with such a sweet girl. Thank you for making the last four months so wonderful! I love you so much!!!!!!! :)
Love,
Mom
