4 Months!!

So here it is.... time for giggles, cereal, smiles, and my little girl being sooooo interested in EVERYTHING around her! I LOVE it! Miss Raegan is growing up so fast, and I feel like she's taking off with me only trailing behind. I still am trying to grasp the fact that she can interact with us, let along that she wants to crawl and walk and gets mad when she realizes that she can't. She tries to mock our lips as we talk to her, and she's already proving to be the drama queen that I predicted she would be. I love being her mommy and watching her grow.... now if she would just slow down a bit! We've made it through Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and now New Years. Most of which she's spent with daddy- but either way, we've made it, and I can't wait to see what 2011 holds in store for our little family! It's going to be amazing-- I can feel it deep down in my soul.
I love the messy house- that's only messy because I've spent the past hour blowing belly raspberries instead of dusting. I love that I have no clean bowls, but all of her bottles are ready to go. I love that although there is laundry to be folded, we still managed to bundle up and make it out for a walk to enjoy the crisp winter breeze. It makes her gasp as it hits her cheeks and turns her little button nose pink. Then we get to go home and cuddle up to get warm in the recliner, with Shug and Kona begging for our attention and longing for our stories of the outdoors that they so wish they could have enjoyed with us. I love the look on Rae's face when her daddy comes home and gives her a big 'hello'. That toothless, crooked smile is priceless-- perfection!

So here's to the new year- 2011. Full of new adventures, smiles, tears, and laughter. It will be more fun than our last- guaranteed. Bring it on... the Steppe clan is ready for it!
