eleven months old
yikes. two months has gone by in the blink of an eye.
dear sweet little hells bells,
please don't think my lack of writing has anything to do with how i feel about you. i love you more than i thought was possible. your gentle yet tough personality continues to grow every day and it makes me happy to see that you don't take any s**t from your big sis. you are the cuddliest thing and i've become quite attached to our 5-6am snuggle time. when you want something you make it known but otherwise are pretty content to go with the flow. we've had a remarkably busy couple of months and i thank my lucky stars every day that you are easy going and cheerful. you are so happy! i look forward to coming home to you because you always reach out for a hug with a smile. a couple older ladies in the grocery store on separate occasions have called you an angel. i guess it's evident to others too.
often when i am holding hellie she will crane her neck to look at me very close up and make eye contact. it's her way of checking in and getting a read on things - at least i think so. i smile at her and she always gives me one of her huge grins back. she's also become quite funny and knows how to make us laugh - especially thea. they spend a lot of time giggling together these days and nothing warms my heart more than this. i picture them growing up together, knowing there will be fights, but ultimately loving each other completely. i'm excited for that but really i kind of just want time to stop right here, right now.
