I Love It When...

As each day passes by and I get to spend it with my baby girl, I find myself falling more and more in love with her (if that's even possible). Every day she makes me laugh, smile, proud and yes, sometimes even cry... Today we spent the entire day at home (aside from a quick grocery store run) and we got in lots of quality time together. As Nick was getting home from work, I began bombarding him with cute "Nora" stories from the day and this prompted today's post about all the things I love about my girl....

I Love It When...

She wakes up in the morning and I can hear her cute babbles and silly "horsey" noises coming from the monitor.

I walk into her room when she is waking up and her eyes light up and she says "MUM" with a huge grin on her adorable face.

Her wild, crazy, hair is sticking up all over the place and she doesn't have a care in the world.

I turn on music and she immediately smiles and starts clapping her hands.

No matter where she is at in the house and she hears Mickey Mouse Clubhouse come on, she quickly crawls to the TV, pulls herself up and begins dancing to the show.

We are out and about and she "flirts" with anyone who will look her way. It never gets old being told how cute, adorable and happy your little girl is :)

She eats...I don't know why there is something so cute about it, but watching her little hands feed herself and enjoying the tastes of different foods just makes me smile inside.

She laughs! Each day she is developing more and more of a personality. It is so fun to find ways to make her giggle non stop for minutes at a time.

She plays with her doggies. She has no fear of animals and loves tormenting them/ aka playing with them.Her new favorite things to do with Tripp are feed him her food, use a brush to brush his hair, and tug on his rope bone as he is trying to play with it!

She takes a bath. She absolutely loves the water. Bath time in our house is one of the best parts of the day and usually lasts for about 30 minutes, lol

 I get to rock her to sleep at night. Cuddling with her while she drifts off always gives me such a feeling of contentment. All is right in the world as I get to hold her little precious body.

She learns new things. It is just absolutely precious to see her get so proud of herself as she realizes she can do something new all by herself!


I am pretty sure my list could continue to go on and on and that it will continue to grow as she gets older but I sometimes just want to put into words the feelings that she brings me each and every day. I always knew I wanted to be a mom someday but it has definitely surpassed any thoughts I have had about how wonderful it would be. It truly is an amazing experience each and every day :))
