Dear Rachel,
You are officially over half a year old. Wait, what? How did that happen? Is this how fast time is going to fly by from now on? Because that’s not fair.
You are the sweetest baby, hands down. So smiley in the morning. Yeah, you fuss at night, but I’ll take that over all day. Plus you SLEEP THROUGH THE NIGHT, and I would take that over a lot of things. You’re so good! I keep telling people we are DONE having babies because you are so good. They act like I’m joking; I’m not joking.
You are without a doubt the most curious baby I’ve ever come across. You are curious about EVERYTHING. What was that noise? Where are the dogs? Where’s my mommy? Where’s my daddy? Wait, what’s that?
And so so happy. How did you get to be so happy and chubby? You’re simply lovely. I’m trying not to be jealous of how much you love Daddy. But really, you do. Where is that guy?
I’m glad we have our moments together in the morning.
As a working mom, I only get to see you for 30 minutes to 3 hours every day. The days when it’s 30 minutes are the hardest. I missed a day of your life, essentially. Hard to swallow when you’re so young.
But growing fast. Half a year gone by. I’d say slow down, but I just try to enjoy each day with you and I can’t wait to see what’s next.
Love,
Mommy
PS – you have a freaking TOOTH now. Just saying.
