I am definitely no longer bored she is awake much more now. I cannot believe she is almost 3 months old already.

Happy Anniversary & St. Patty's Day!!!!

Happy 2nd Anniversary baby!!!!
I cannot believe it has been 2 years already. I feel like it was yesterday. These past 2 years have been some of the best and most life changing years of my life. Since March 2006 we have added a dog and a beautiful little girl to the Ritter family. Jeremy has become self employed and I am now a stay at home mom. WOW have things changed but I love our life together and the family we have become. I look forward to many more years together. Each year we get stronger and I fall more in love!!!!

~Getting SO Big~

Kaylee loves her new mobile... She stares, smiles & laughs at it.
She is getting smart and has learned how to hold her pacifier in... Looking at this pictures makes me laugh... her HAIR is crazy! From day 1 the first thing that people say when they see her is "look at all that hair" LOL!!! She has a ton of dark hair that is out of control. Jeremy's mom says that his hair was just like hers (minus the color). As the weeks go on I think that she is starting to look a lot more like daddy. She is such a sweet little thing I feel like she has been a part of our family forever now.

2 Months

My Kaylee girl~ 2 months old.
She is getting so big...we had her 2 month check up on Monday. It was a great appointment. I love her doctor and his thoughts on parenting. He gave me some great advice. Kaylee is now weighing 10 pound 8 ounces and is 23 inches long. She is healthy and doing great. She got her shots which was much more sad for mommy than her she did cry but got over it really fast. Kaylee is really starting to smile now... it melts my heart and makes my day.
My "Mother's Necklace"~ So my mom gave me this beautiful garnet pendant right after I had Kaylee. Garnet is Kaylee's birth stone... this pendant was given to my mom by someone very special to her and she decided to pass it on to me. I may just be having a moment but I have to share that I really do LOVE being a mom. It is the hardest but most rewarding job I have ever had. I called my mom a couple weeks ago and told her that she was SO right... "You just don't get it tell you have your own". The love that I have for our little girl is indescribable. I do have to admit that sometimes I just want a break but then when I am away from her I think about her all the time. I just feel so blessed to have a healthy baby. I also love that I get to share all of these great/challenging times with so many friends that also have kids and are going through all the same things I am. I never thought I would be thinking or saying any of this. But being a mom is better than I ever imagined.
Mom~ Thank you for this perfect gift... I am so lucky to have you in my life. You are a great example to me as well as a great friend.
I love you~
xoxo
