Today was special! My first mothers day as a real live mom! We spent the morning laying around and then Nick and Elliot gave me my gift which was a beautiful necklace with a topaz jewel (Elli's birthstone). Then we ate waffles, napped, had a couple friends stop over, and then headed to lunch at texas roadhouse with my mom and sister. After that we headed to Michigan to visit with Nick's mom and family. While at Nick's families house Elli needed a nap and she was fighting it so I layed down with her. This was my favorite part of the whole day- i layed beside her and just stared at my beautiful little baby girl, just me and her, she was sleeping peacefully and all i could do was stare...she's already 6 months old and its flown by. I'm so blessed to have her in my life and I'm so thankful to God for giving her to me and nick. It feels like she's always been here and I can't imagine life without her. When I think about how much goes into making a baby and how perfect everything has to be for it to work it gives me so much joy because I know that God is a miracle worker. Being a mom is THE hardest thing I've ever done but it's also the most amazing privilege. I love being a mom and taking care of her so much...I can't wait for you girls to all experience this some day!! GOD IS GOOD!
I hope you all had a beautiful day too!!!!
