The Love of My Life

Life is good right now. I've just been enjoying having both my husband and my beautiful baby girl with me every day. Seeing them together is pretty amazing. Ryan has taken to her with ease, and she adores him already. There are times where Mommy just doesn't cut it. Especially when she hears his voice when he comes in the door from work. Wherever she is ceases to be good enough, and she whines until Ryan gives her some kind of attention and acknowledgement. It's adorable, but we try not to give in to it every time because that could lead to a habit of whining until she gets anything she wants. I'd like to avoid that at least in some regards.

She has changed my life, but at the same time I feel like this is how it was always meant to be. She makes our life together so much more than it was, and it was pretty awesome to begin with. We love how much more alert she's becoming so that we can actually play with her and see her reaction to things. She's constantly smiling and laughing at us. Right now she's making cute little happy sounds in her bouncy seat. Now here's hoping I can keep her entertained there while I jump in the shower. Finding a moment to shower can be tough, but I make it happen every single morning. It's something I don't really understand from other mothers who can't find the time to do it. I just make it my very first priority aside from caring for Anya. So the second she's entertained or napping, I hit the shower. Today is an exception to the rule because I haven't seemed to have the time to blog much lately and wanted to get an entry in real quick. I'm off to tend to my little one and hopefully get my shower shortly thereafter.

On a completely unrelated note, paid blogging about things like a disability appeal is difficult. Seriously? Like Social Security will even exist by the time I'm old enough to receive it. Psh.
