Where did February go? Abigail is six months old (almost seven) and into everything, so I don't have a second to spare - hence not blogging for the past month. I wouldn't have it any other way though. She's my world. Motherhood isn't easy, far from it. Every stage has it's difficulties, but the reward far surpasses the fatigue, being pooped on, peed on, having baby food in your hair, and never having a minute for yourself. Today she laughed hysterically for the first time and my heart burst with joy. It's these moments that remind you just how wonderful life is.
I have a new favorite baby product, the Aden + Anais Serenity Star. As much as we've love the sleep sheep it only plays sounds for 45 minutes and Abigail would wake when the sound turned off. The Serenity Star will play noise constantly. It also tells you the temperature of the room digitally and by color - the star glows white if the temperature is in the recommended range by pediatricians, red if it's too warm and blue if it's too cold. Love that feature. It's a clock as well and can keep track of feedings - we don't need this function anymore, but will be great for the next kiddo.
Speaking of the next kiddo my stomach is in knots I have to go in this month to have my fibroid checked. If it's grown then I'll have to have surgery, which holds the risk of not being able to have more babies. If that's the case I'll be devastated, but Jonathan and I have always talked about adopting. However the outcome I have an incredible little family that I'm so grateful for.

We've been blessed with so much. Your doctor appointment will be just fine. You'll see you worried for nothing. It's amazing to see Abigail grow but it's even more amazing to see the wonderful mother you've developed into that I always knew you had in you. You're a fantastic mother and your doing great. You do it all, you're a super hero for sure. I love you so much!

Who knew saying yes to going to a football game 11 years ago was going to lead to the most incredible life with the most incredible man. Thank you for asking me to marry you and for giving me more than I could've ever dreamed of.
