Where has the time gone? I’m still writing September in the date line on checks because in my mind, it’s still the middle of September, not nearing the end of October.
I can’t believe Kaylee is 5 weeks old already. She smiles and coos a little and is starting to giggle at us. She loves bath time and hates having to get dressed. Her favorite place in the house is chilling out on her changing table. She’s not really fussy, but still has her nights and days totally mixed up. She’s outgrowing newborn clothes and newborn diapers. She weighed 8lbs 10oz at her 4 week doctor’s appointment. She’s got a tight belly now and her little legs and arms have rolls that weren’t there when she was born. Her hair is getting darker and her eyes are still dark blue. She’s the love of my life … the person I’ve been waiting to love all my life and just didn’t know it yet.
I love watching her sleep because she makes the best faces. I love her little cry and know I could pick it out of a crowd of crying babies. I love watching Kris interact with her. He carries on the sweetest conversations with her. Plotting about only taking a bath once a month and telling her how pretty she is. He’s a natural at fatherhood and I’m so glad I could give him that gift.
It’s hard to remember our lives without Kaylee. She completes our little family in ways I never dreamed possible.
