Yes! Layla is turning ONE this Saturday! We can't believe it! Layla is 3 days old in this picture! So precious! I miss her being a tiny baby! Well, 8lbs 11oz isn't tiny but tiny compared to her now! lol! ;)If you haven't responded to the e-invite I sent you, please take the time to check your e-mail, even the junk mail, find it and let me know if you can make it! We will be having a ton of food and dessert. We hope to see you there!!
As I watch Layla and Zak play together I can't help it but to smile. Even if they are fighting. lol! I smile because a little angel was sent to us from heaven. But also I cry a little. I cry because we also had another angel return to heaven. Nancy hung on long enough to have the chance to meet her newest grand baby. We took Layla to see Nancy when she was just 3 weeks old, this was a Sunday. That following Friday is when Nancy couldn't fight anymore and returned to be with our Heavenly Father. Nancy got the chance to snuggle with Layla. Dan held Layla next to Nancy's cheek. Layla even moved her face closer to Nancy's cheek as if to look at her and while she did this she had her little tongue sticking out a little and ended up licking Nancy's cheek. It was a perfectly sweet moment. And that moment is the last one I have of Nancy. That was the last time I got to be with her. I miss her so much. But I know she is watching Layla grow and play from Heaven above.
Layla's first birthday will be a wonderful celebration of her birth. She gave me the strength to make it through Nancy's passing. Layla also gave me the strength to deliver her as I wanted to. I am so very proud of myself. Layla fulfilled my goal to give birth completely natural! I even "caught" her myself! And to top it off she is a booby baby! Well, a one booby baby! lol! I think I have posted some of Zak's birth story before. I had a real hard time when he was born. With the delivery and with breast infections and abscess. Nothing went as planned, thanks to my "wonderful" Doctor. OOOoooh I hate that guy! My sister is expecting a baby girl! Yay! But when she went in for her first OB appointment she had to sign a paper that consented 3 other doctors to deliver her baby if her doctor was unavailable and HE was one of those doctors!! I just about grabbed her hand and escorted her out of there! All in all she now is seeing my Doctor, the one who helped me deliver Layla. So I'm relieved and excited! She's going to try her best to go natural with me as her coach. I'll post how she does way later! Baby is due October 4th! I pray that everything works out for her.
This little rocking chair is the same rocking chair my Grandma gave to me to sit in when I was just 4 years old. So I gave it to Zak when he turned 4! He loves it so much. But when he sits in it and Layla is crawling around, she goes over to him and stands in front of him with her hands on his legs and tries to push him. Like she's trying to give him a ride. Zak gets so mad! So because he can't see his movie anymore he gets up and moves to the floor so she will stop bugging him. But she then takes off with the chair and walks it around the room. Zak sees this a gets even more angry. lol! So they were so happy when they Both got to sit in the chair together! ;)Anyways!! I'm going to stop chatting and start my daily crazyness! Hope to see you Saturday!! ;)
