Ten Meli Things That Make Me Happy

My own version of a list seen here and here:

1. That my baby girl is now 15 lbs, 9 oz and 26 inches! YAY MOMMY MILK! How big is my girl?!

2. That I get to take lots of pictures of lots of babies and then I get to come home to my own baby girl. Ain’t nothing like the real thing baby!

3. RICE CEREAL!


4. The fact that my baby girl is loving this new adventure. See here:

5. That my baby girl is okay enough with strangers (i.e. MomMom) that Daddy and I had a date last night. Man I was like a teenager in LURVE! God I love that man. Thanks Mom!

6. These shoes. You tell me. What little girl doesn’t need a pair of red patent leather mary janes? Dude. Let the shoe fetish begin! (Thanks Aunt Margaret!)

7. That I finally found my baby’s blanket. The one she’s going to love for the rest of her life whether she likes it or not. (It’s a DNA thing. Trust me.) Just like her mommy’s. A post will come about this – but it’s been quite a search and the result has been quite an experience in sense memory.

8. Naps.

9. Waking up from naps with those gurgly little sounds and a big smile.

10. Kisses. Lots of kisses from my baby girl. Wet, sloppy, open mouth, drooly kisses. THE.BEST.EVER.

  3. We have the exact same bouncy chair for Jake! My kid must be a porker… he just weighed in at fourteen and a half pounds and he’s just over three months old! I can’t even imagine how big he will be at six months. Crap!

  4. Awwwwwww! I love wet, drooly baby kisses!

  5. Meli should be on everybody’s list!
    I called my maternal grandmother MomMom and I so wish that my girls would let their kids call me that, but they are not going for it. Yet.

  6. She just gets cuter by the minute

  7. Oh my she is sooooo cute. Love the squares in your heading.

  8. Those look like dancing shoes!!! Paint the town red, Ms. Meli!!
