Hello blog world!!!

It's been a while since I've written a post!!! Since my last post, I've returned to working full time, Baby K started pre-school, and the hubby is also back to work everyday at the office!!! Suffice to say, the only constant we've had here at home is CHANGE!!! Our precious girl has been home for nine months now and it has been the happiest, scariest, most humbling, most amazing, and AWESOME"est" time ever!!! I've never been more tired or worried or stressed in my entire life...but SHE is so worth it! I wouldn't trade it for the world!!! Since we've been home we've celebrated many first. Baby K had her first birthday in March, gave up her bottle for her first sippy cup in April, she was dedicated to Christ on my first Mother's Day in May, first trip to the zoo in June to celebrate Edward's Father's Day, first trip to Disneyland for Edward's birthday in July, and finally first day of pre-school in August. These are the milestones but it's all of the moments in between that I totally live for. The snuggly lazy Saturday mornings, the random smile on my face when I'm washing her sippy cups, the goodnight kisses, the sweet voice that calls me mommy, the baby scent that I can distinguish from any other, the chair on the table that now has a pink booster seat, the flailing arms that rejuvenates me as they wrap tightly around my neck when I get home exhausted from work, the giggles, and watching baby K raise her arms up in praise when worshiping at church on Sunday mornings! There are so many moments that I've experienced in this short amount of time that I've been entrenched in motherhood. Daily, I'm amazed at how blessed I am to be this precious girl's mommy...
