Three Months



Hello Little Lady, 

You are a fourth of a way through the most incredible year. Your little personality is shinining through more and more every day and I love seeing you change. When you are home with Mom and Dad you are filled with coos, smiles, and squeaks yet when we are out you are quiet, peaceful, and observant. Your smile lights up the world, your squeaks are the sweetest sounds I have ever heard, and your cuddles, your cuddles prove to me that my arms were made to hold you forever. You were made for me and I was made for you. 

The lord knit you together in my womb and kept you for nine wonderful months. He then trusted your Dad and me to fill your life with love, guidance from the lord, and wisdom that can only be found through him. For these reasons on February 4th 2017 at Harvest Bible Chapel we dedicated ourselves to seek the lord first and foremost in raising you. This was one of the most wonderful days that we have experienced with you. It was simple, five minutes at most, your dad read 1 Samuel 1:27-28. These verses mean so much to us and to you angel girl. For two years I prayed with a heart of Hannah begging the lord for you and he is so faithful in hearing my cries in knowing my heart. Just as Hannah was blessed with Samuel we have been blessed with you, and just as Hannah turned Samuel over to the Lord we turn you back to the Lord. As the dedication continued Pastor Jeff prayed over us as a family as the church extended their arms praying in agreement with Pastor Jeff. Eloise Jeanne you have been blessed with a family who loves you and church families who will help guide you. You are loved!

In your third month of beautiful life you had many other adventures. You traveled to Wyoming to attend your very own meet and greet hosted by your grandma and Aunt Donna. You watched your very first Super Bowl, which in our lives is a very big deal especially when Tom Brady came back to win his fifth ring in overtime, a first in NFL history. You celebrated your very first Valentine's Day and were loved on by mommy and daddy as well as the harvest 20s group that we ate dinner with. Your life is filled with friends who love you and family that adores you! 





You love your bath time and are getting so good at kicking in the water. You love car rides and being worn by Mom. You love the ceiling fan, honestly that is your favorite thing in the whole world. You do not love tummy time, sometimes your car seat, or being held by really anyone but Mom. 

 Being your mom is my greatest honor and watching you grow is the most wonderful blessing. I love you Eloise Jeanne.

Top 10 Tips for Flying with an Infant

Last week we spent the entire week in Cincinnati for the national veterans wheelchair games, which was probably one of the most incredible experiences of my life, but we will save that for a different post. We met great people, had wonderful conversation, and took our sweet girl on her first airplane ride. Being the crazy mom that I am, I stressed about the plane ride for far to long and made way to many mental notes on how to survive it. I asked everyone who had ever flown with a child what to do and received some great advice. My goal is to break it down into the top 10 things you "need" in order to survive flying with a baby! 1. Plastic Bags are Your Friend Prior to heading out to the airport I separated Ellie's diaper back with gallon size baggies. I had all her diapers and wipes packed in one, toys in another, and food in it's own. It made fast diaper changes before take off a breeze, as well as finding snacks in the air. Everything had its place an...

Nine Months

        My Sweet Eloise Jeanne, Month nine has come and gone and mama has been the worst at putting this together. Has with every month this one has been equally busy and equally different. I find myself smelling your sweet baby scent as it becomes fainter. I hold you nightly after you have fallen asleep staring at your sweet tiny face. This month I feel that we said goodbye to my baby baby and began welcoming our soon to be toddler. Your personality has come out in force, you know what you want and will do whatever it takes to get it. You are determined and strong willed, both qualities that I know will take you far in the future. I miss my baby baby but love playing with my new toddler girl. This month was a huge month for mobility. We went from not really being able to move at all to moving constantly. On July 25th you began trying to army crawl and can successfully get yourself from one place to another. On Friday,...

Eleven Months

Hello Eloise Jeanne,  Can you believe it, you are eleven months old. This month was different than the others because I knew exactly what we were doing a year ago. I remember celebrating you with our church family back home, I remember making the long drive to Albuquerque for the Balloon Fiesta and celebrating you at Aunt Becca's shower. I remember feeling as though I couldn't get any bigger and then I did. I remember counting each of your kicks to make sure you were growing just right. You were my best friend long before I met you and you captured my wold long before the world greeted you.  This month you seemed to truly embrace that crazy toddler side and nothing can stop our speed crawler. You know exactly where the dog food is and love to play in Chuck's water, chuck does not find it quite as amusing. You are love to smile, you are constantly smiling and waving at anyone and everyone. You figured out how to wave, the sweet little precious wave whe...
