Whew!
So sorry if this post is all over the place – I’ve been a tinsy winsy bit sleep deprived 🙂
Why, you ask?
Because…..our baby girl is here!!!!
And oh my goodness. It hasn’t even been two weeks since I had her – and she has given me SOOOO many sweet things to blog about. Simple things – like how I love kissing her cheeks and how fun it is to dress her up in cute little outfits. And deep things – like how I have such a strong desire for her to have faith and how I want her to be a confident and courageous lady.
My heart is just so full right now, y’all. The fact that I now have two healthy little ones- is a blessing that is not at all missed by this Mama – not for one second. Yes, I may be a bit sleepy and delirious at times – Yes, I may be typing this with one hand because my new little miracle insisted on being cuddled half-way through this post – And yes, I may be smack dab in the middle of potty training my first born – but friends – my cup runneth over.
The joyful laughter that fills our home – the high fives that go around when my son uses the potty – the cry heard in the middle of the night from my hungry infant – the playful bark I hear from our sweet dog outside, the smell of baby lotion, the bombardment of pink clothing that fills my daughters closet, the “ouch!” that comes out of my mouth every time I step on one of my son’s little toy tractors, the sound of the front door opening when my husband gets home from work, the look on his face when he holds our kids, the comfort I feel when he embraces me, the precious words that come out of my son’s mouth when he is asked to pray – yes – my cup is overflowing.
I just want to shout “Thank you, Lord!!!” But somehow, that just doesn’t seem like enough.
– Psalm 9: 2
Found her!!!! And she is beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! 🙂 AND she is blessed to have a momma who not only loves her so much, but also a momma who is so head over heels in love with Jesus! I know it will rub off on her!
Blessings,
K
You'll have have fun – and blessing too – I can say from four daughters and three granddaughters-worth of experience!
Dearest Kate…I'm sitting here with MY baby girl (now 10) ooo-ing and ahhh-ing over YOUR baby girl!!! She is so stinkin' cute!!! My daughter loves her.
What is her name?
I'm so happy for you. Can't wait to read more about her. I wish I lived closer so I could scoop her up in her little bundle blankie.
Thanks for taking the time in your sleep-deprived state to stop by my blog and leave such sweet comments.
Love you,
Sandy and Rebekah (my baby)
yay! so glad your new bundle has arrived, and that she gives you so much to rejoice about. new life is such an amazing gift. have fun!
I so understand! Congratulations on another precious and healthy little one! I am thrilled to see she is here! What a beauty!
Kate, I am so thrilled for you! I never knew how attached I could become to my bloggy friends. I absolutely LOVE how you describe your life right now. You take nothing for granted. I love how you describe your son's potty training and I can just see the high five's. So cute!
Just think, your blog will be a documenatary of your life, only it will include all the feelings you felt plus more. I am so grateful to be a small participant in your life. I think I came to know you through Sandy's blog. She's a gem too.
You know Kate, I just think the Lord has blessed us with our blogs. We can get to know each other and encourage one another and share in the joys with one another. This occasion of the birth of your precious daughter is a joy and I'm so glad you let me know.
God bless you Kate. Wish you were closer and I would help out and babysit. LOL.
