I LOVE BEING A MOM!!
Seriously, is there anything greater? I was thinking last night as I was snuggling my little bug how blessed I am to be her momma. I love her chunky thighs, her pudgy toes, her big squishy belly, her sweet clammy hands, and her cookie dough cheeks and double chin that I lovelovelove to nibble and kiss! She is just the sweetest thing in the entire world and my heart BURSTS with love for this little girl that I get to snuggle and wake up to everyday! I can't imagine my life without her, I am just so glad that my original plan that Robby and I made before her didn't happen and that we were surprised with her because she just makes our home so much more of a home and our little family so much more of a family. I loved my time with just me and Robby and that is why in our original plan we wanted to wait a lot longer before trying to have a baby--but now I can see how much better this plan is, how much happier Robby and I both are for having Rilee! Ahh I just love my family! I love watching her look around and think and grow, although I wish she could stay my little baby who needs me so much for her whole life but you can see in her eyes, she is ready to take on the world! She has rolled over a total of 3 times so far but she is determined let me tell you! She is camera shy, otherwise I would have a video of it but every time I take out the camera, she decides she is done for the day haha ohhh goodness, I need to get back to snuggling with her......

My baby is almost 2 months old!!! SO CRAZY. I thought I should probably updated my blog with things that have happened during her first month before she actually turns 2 months. Where to start really...first off, I never knew how much I could LOVE such a tiny being but she has completely stolen my heart and I never want it back! This month has been so much fun, being a mom is quite possibly the most amazing thing in the world!! I feel extremely lucky and blessed to be her mom! I still feel like I am babysitting her or something, like this cant be real that I am a MOM-so weird. But she sleeps so well, eats so well and is such a joy to be around all day-I have no reason to complain at all! 

This month she has out grown her newborn diapers :\ shes had too many explosions so we made the switch, they are a little bit big on her but they keep the poop in so we like 'em! 

I let her lick a ring pop, no judgments please, but she loved it! She was smiling and then cried when I took it away...such a little chunk I loooove it!!!!

She still has yet to fit in newborn shoes because her feet are too small but she has the CUTEST pudgy toes i've ever seen!

She almost always has her middle finger out and doesn't like when we try and put it away so now we just let it happen haha 

She is just starting to like bath time, had a few rough goes with it but the last one she enjoyed!

She does smile every once and awhile and when she does, it just melts my heart! She is very happy in the mornings and when she is sleeping sometimes ill catch her smiling :)

She is very strong, she does so good with tummy time-picking her head up and moving it, she can focus in on noises and movement really well 

She burps SO easily! I just have to pick her up from eating and bounce her once or twice on her boppy or pat her back once or twice and she just burps and burps! 

She has had 2 huge-and i mean HUGE spit ups..of course all over me but they were huge! One was so big it covered my left side all the way from my chest to my pants, the arm of her rocking chair, her entire body and the floor--it was a mess!! I was covered in old spit up milk and then since she was covered too we gave her a bath and then she peed on me, it was lovely!

Geez there are so many things, I could (and do) look at her all day and never get bored! I lovelovelove being her mom and love that I get to stay at home with her, she is my world and love her SOO much!!!
