Gush here...

We all know parenting is hard. But it's also super amazing! Gush here about why you love being a mom, and what you love about any/all of your kiddos! What is going well?

PT is going so well! She is rolling back to belly, she resists her arms going up a little less and the Dr said her head is already looking a little better. I think she's going to start mastering stuff quickly now that she is in PT. She finally found her toes and will sort of sit holding them for a few seconds.

I am LOVING this stage right now. DS is so smiley and giggly, my heart can hardly stand it. I look at him and wonder what I did to deserve such a sweet, happy boy. I know everyone thinks this about their own children, but I just think he is the cutest boy I've ever seen.

The last few nights he has been sleeping so well, from like 7:00-4:00, nurses, then back down til 6:00 or 7:00.

One thing I was worried about being a parent was my lack of patience. But holy cow, I have so much patience with DS. I don't become flustered when he cries, like I thought I would. I seem to be able to read him and just know what he needs (sleep, nursing, less stimulation, more stimulation, a pacifier, snuggles, to be left alone in his swing, etc.)!

I'm loving the SAHM life! I'm enjoying my time with them and while there are stressful moments and will be downright awful days, I think that this is going to be the best year of my life.

I am just so completley in love with DS, and to think I was worried I could not love someone else as much as I love DD. My hear just melts when I go see him at daycare, or he first sees me in the morning, and he just gives me a huge smile, like all is right in the world because mommy is here. It is just so pure, and wonderful when he smiles, and giggles.
Even the daycare ladies say he is so sweet, and grinning all the time.

I love my kids. They are the best. I love watching the older ones entertain and play with the baby. I've started trusting my boys in carrying the baby around the house. It's precious.

Today we went grocery shopping. Baby in the Ergo, girlsin the cart, DS1 reading me my list and DS2 helping me with the mental math to know what we were spending. Creeper lady was staring at me for like five minutes and then when I turned the corner I heard her say "Did you see that? That was inspiring. All those kids and they were so well behaved and helpful." I gushed inside. My kids truly are the best. I'm blessed!
