Hi Everyone,
As of March 29th, 2014 I officially survived one year as a new mom! WOW, that year flew by! It was one roller coaster ride of a year and I wouldn’t change a moment. Lets look back on some of the top and hard moments of the last year.
Some Top Moments:
-Dahlia has learnt to rolling over, smile, crawl, laugh, walk, eat solids, sit up, stand up, babble, etc.
-seeing the excitement and determination when she tries something new
-her laugh always makes me smile!
-seeing & holding Dahlia for the first time
-celebrating my first Mother’s Day, our first Christmas, her first birthday…
-rocking Dahlia to sleep every night
-creating memories and new traditions as a family
Some Hard Moments:
-the lack of sleep in the first 3 months
-finding out Dahlia is allergic to dairy
-her first big fall from walking
-healing from child birth
-breast feeding
-people not realizing you have a baby and your life revolves around there schedule
-leaving her for the first time over night
-deciding to return to work
These are just a few of many things I can think of.
Becoming a parent has to be the most rewarding thing I have ever done in my life. As life progresses and Dahlia gets older each day, I will never forget the day she was born. It was the most amazing and life changing day of my life. I know all of you new moms and dads out their are wondering what life will be life as your child grows up; my only advice is every day just keeps getting better and better!
Until next time,
One Sentimental Momma
