Esther: April 2012

Our baby turned 8 months old in April! She has had a rough couple of months, with multiple colds, ear infections, and lots of growth!! In April she liked to be held ALL THE TIME! My arms have never been this strong! She also went solo in a swing for the first time! She loved it! A few more accomplishments she made were to army crawl, but only a little, and to cruise along the furniture! She still LOVES to stand! May 2012 will have a lot more updates about our little baby!

You may not know that I love babies!! I'm pretty sure it's genetic. My maternal grandmother had 14, and my paternal grandma had 9. My parents had 9. No, this is not an announcement. Nor am I trying to set our number of kids. We for sure want 3. I just need to let you know how I feel about my babies. I just look at them and am in awe. Not just that I helped create them, but that they are mine. Or, at least, they are on loan to me! They are just so sweet. I look at my little Esther, squeeze her pudgy arms, snuggle her little body, and I think I know what Heaven will be like. At least for me!
