time waits for no one......


one hour after birth.... SAMAYA NINA
its been nine months since i gave birth to my daughter, She came 13 days before her due date, now I'm not going to lie and say i didn't want her out already but I'm glad she was and is a very healthy little girl, Born five pounds five ounces, and eighteen inches long, shes come a long way! last we weight her she was 17lbs and 23inches long that was at six months! I'm also very proud to say that my daughter received formula only for the first two weeks of her life, its been something I have gone back and forth on but I'm happy now that we stuck with breastfeeding its been a long nine months and my goal is one year, but if shes not ready to stop nursing I will be here, and so will my breast! I'm very excited also that I did cloth diapering it was something I wanted to check out while pregnant but just didn't jump the gun, its been a great experience and I'm happy to share it with anyone that will listen, ha ha! Okay so now the good part! my daughters pictures... from birth to now..... and we will repeat this at the year mark! ;)

Me as a baby... not sure my age thou.

6th month and Sam was in cloth almost all day and most nights!

7th... cloth still going strong! 

8th... hanging out with Haylie, sitting alone and eating purees... still no formula! lol :)

9th month... wow time has.... evaporated ... where have the days gone?

no more still pics, this little lady is OUT!!!!

shes smiling, catch me if u can momma..


Okay so its nap time then gotta start dinner, but if someone would of told me eighteen months ago that I would of gone through a  pregnacy and was going to be a stay at home mom i would of laugh in thier face and maybe told them off... now I'm so grateful that I was able to stay with my daughter and give her the best of me. She is truly my work of art and my pride and joy! My daughter overcomes everyone. I'm in a very great place with myself, learning to like my new look and role, and even though we all have something to learn and try to get better I'm just trying to get back on my two feet and show my daughter, mommy is a strong woman, and will always promise to think of you before she makes any moves! 
Love you always, your momma!
