This sucks....

So here my household is asleep...and I can't sleep!!! I get periodic bouts of insomnia, and have for years, and of all times to hit again! I think it was the nap I took tonight...well, that and the fact that I was hungry when I went to bed! So here I sit, watching the end of "The Prince and I II"...SIGH!!! Yes, sadly, I have seen this movie more than once as well!
Delanah is grunting in her sleep, sounds that I don't get to hear normally, and I love listening to her! It's at times like this that I can hardly believe that this little person is in my life. She is in her "starfish" pose, arms and legs akimbo..just absolutely adorable! How did I get so lucky, to be blessed with such a wonderful child in my life. To know that the Lord has trusted me to raise her, share the world and my life with her, is overwhelming at times.
I remember towards the end of my pregnancy being absolutely petrified at the thought if actually being a mom, but now it feels so natural and right. This is what I was meant to do in life.
I love that she smiles at me when I speak to her, whether or not I am holding her at the time. She has been laughing more for me as well. She has also discovered volume...that girl can yell sometimes! I don't mean crying either, just when she's talking to me...she likes to experiment with her volume, very funny! She is squealing a lot more as well. This afternoon she was talking and squealing to her mobile and I was listening in over the monitor. Yesterday she grabbed her toys on her play gym all by herself! Not sure if she did it on purpose or not...but she did it! I got it captured on film :)
This afternoon during tummy time she was getting quite angry about being on her stomach, and really started kicking her legs and was getting so close to rolling over! But we just aren't there yet. I am trying to get more time in the day for her to lay on her stomach, hoping to convince her that she wants to roll, but i know that will come in her own time :) Okay, I am now going to watch people get lost in the jungle on "I shouldn't be alive" and hope that I can fall asleep before Dave wakes up for work!
