5 weeks happenings

this is how momma sees stella most of the time ...


 on momma's lap ... her favorite place to fall asleep

surprised face after a bath ... we are slowly starting to enjoy the bath ...


 this picture is the biggest reason i need a new smaller, lighter, faster camera ... 
to catch moments like this ... this is how i found baby girl napping on the couch just moments ago

 loving these cheeks and they are getting bigger and bigger! 

documentation of her natural faux-hawk ... i swear her hair is getting lighter ... 
and i hope her tendency towards being cross-eyed lessens

 and this is what she does each evening when daddy gets home ... she is getting stronger and stronger each day holding her head up!  when nate is holding her i can better see just how little she really is and it still makes me tear up because then i feel really acutely just how much i really love them both ... being a mom is so emotionally overwhelming!

 we love the little pursed lips ... we have yet to catch the "oooo" look she does once in a while ... we love this little girl!

    amen to pinterest; its so addicting! its my "i deserve this" moment that i give to myself too often when the kids are demanding too much of me, or when they're both occupied.....:)
