Six Months|Mila Joy!

SIX MONTHS!!! We are at the half way point with Mila Joylynne and it’s bittersweet not wanting to stop time. The opportunity to have one more baby and our last to be a girl just doesn’t cease to amaze me.

Mila you are full of contagious joy! At six months you roll over everywhere (yes even off the bed…). You are LOUD – and I love it! Your brothers absolutely adore you to the point it’s difficult to keep them at a distance without smothering you. I can’t blame them, I love to do the same.

We’re still in our nursing journey, but have started introducing solids. You are your mother’s child and love trying new food, but you like what you like! So far that’s bananas.

Being home and truly watching you at each new stage is foreign territory for me. I’m apprehensive yet intrigued as I watch you soak it all in. With your brothers I was still working and relied on the stories and embraces of our trusted caretakers to fill in the gap. With you I’m completely present to see it all for myself.

This season with you is such a blessing. Mila you continue to remind me the gift of parenting and it only helps me love you and your brothers even more.

Happy six months Mila.
