All I know, is that it makes each day so much meaningful when I do have Avarie – because its only for a short time before I have to go to bed to wake up early for work or school.
It will be worth it in the end to get through school but right now ALL I want to do is spend every minute with little avarie elle.
This girl is almost 9 months old!!! Can you believe it?? I’ve had her as long as I was pregnant with her, but my pregnancy honestly feels like it was 5 times longer. How is this possible? She is so close to being a little one year old I can’t even stand it. I miss my tiny little baby that didn’t fit in any clothes and wore teeny little diapers with that little tiny cry that no one could hear unless you were right next to her.
I do love this stage she is in though, she is so much fun. She laughs at everything and is ALWAYS smiling. She is seriously the happiest baby in the world. She is learning to mimick sounds we make and can almost crawl. She sits up all by herself and claps whenever she is happy. This baby skootches around and loves to jump jump jump! She will eat almost anything and has not had any problems with solids – she is definitely not like her mom in that way, I am the pickiest thing ever and she just loves everything.
Avarie is starting to recognize people and she reaches for me which just melts my heart and makes me the happiest ever. She absolutely loves animals, she just sits and smiles and laughs and claps whenever the cats or dogs or bunnies are around. She is sleeping through the night like a champ, we did have to do a little sleep training with her and it made all the difference in the world.
I have stopped nursing her as of January 1st and I can honestly say I miss it. I miss that time with my baby where it was just us and it was quiet and I would sit and look at her and how beautiful she is and cry because of how perfect of a baby I have. My milk supply was just almost completely gone and so I figured it was time.
I love this little girl so much and feel so lucky to have her. It’s hard sometimes being away from her with work and school but everything I’m doing, is for her. I need to have insurance and I’m going to school so I can make more money so we can live a stable life and have opportunities to do things like dance lessons and travelling. I just wish I never had to be away from that smiling happy little girl of mine. She is truly perfect and is the greatest blessing I could have ever received.
Here are some fun pictures from our last trip to target! I got a groupon for 25 bucks and I actually thought the pictures turned out great ☺
