3 months

Today, my baby girl turns 3 months old.
It's bizarre how on one hand, it feels like I have known her forever.  Like she has been part of my life for my entire life.  How it has not only been 3 months, it has been my entire life of having her and loving her.  And on the other, it feels like it was yesterday when I looked into her eyes for the first time.  When I was holding her tight while laying on the hospital bed and staring down w a smile on my face as she slept.
She was so perfect back then... and she is even more perfect right now.

I am living my dream.  What I wanted, I have. 
Sometimes I feel like I have to pinch myself to see if this is real.  I have the cutest most adorable kids in the universe!  Did I really make those 2 little creatures? ;-)

These 3 months have been a bit crazy.
Amongst all my happiness as a new mom of 2, we have been very very stressed.
Jodi has been very busy (traveling quite often) trying to find a new job, as things with the company he has worked for have not gone the way he wanted them to.
I worry on a daily basis about our future and what is going to happen.
But we have to stay focused and positive that something will work out soon!!!
(and from what has been going on these past few days, things look good!!)
So yes, we have been going through a lot of stress, but one thing is for certain, I adore my family more and more and I thank God every day of my life for blessing me with so much!

My  little Julianna is something else!
(Jonathan too, but this post is dedicated to Julianna's 3 month "birthday")

She smiles SO MUCH. 
And she is pretty vocal. 
When u baby talk to her, she "talks" right back at you! And quite loud, I have to say.
I wonder who she is getting that from? (shh!)

She has discovered her hands and I just love that!  She looks at her cute little hands while grabbing her own little fingers.

She still is not a fan of car rides, but it's getting a little better. (not that I go out that much)

Her eyes, oh her eyes! I get lost in them.  They are mostly greyish. Sometimes they look like they are going to be blue, sometimes green...  who knows, they may turn out brown like mommy and daddy's.  But they are just so pretty!

She loves when mommy walks around doing the baby dance while she is falling asleep.  She stares at me like "ok mommy.  I am comfy now. I love you so much when you do this and I am going to fall asleep in your arms in a little bit.  Just let me enjoy it a little more..."

She is following Jojo with her eyes a lot now.  And from time to time, Jojo gets infront of her and starts being all funny and makes her smile.  He starts fake laughing when she smiles and I crack up with them both! 
I am smiling just thinking about that!

She is so soft. So little.  So tender and such a girly girl already!

I love her.

Happy 3 months of life, MY SWEET BABY PRINCESS!!!!
