I hope I can always remember..

Since it is 1 am and I can't sleep because of Heartburn (this little guy better have hair and lots of it) I thought I would take some time to blog. Chad has been gone all week and finally got home tonight. Layla and I both missed him so much! When he got home, Layla would not let him out of her sight. It was so endearing to watch them wrestle and snuggle and talk and play. She loves her daddy and so do I! He is a good man.
As we were putting her to bed, we knelt down to say prayers. We have been trying to get her to kneel, but she usually sits or walks around the room with her arms folded. However, tonight she knelt down, bowed her head and folded her little arms. I hope I can always remember that sweet sight. Cute little Layla with her hair still wet from her bath, in her Dora jammies, kneeling in her room with mommy and daddy, as daddy said a prayer. It brought tears to my eyes.
Layla is more and more like Chad every day and I'm so thankful! She is a happy, funny and thoughtful little person. I'm grateful for her and have thought several times how blessed I am to have her in my home. I would hope that all parents get to feel that way about their little ones.

Here are some photos.

*Layla's cute buns (she would not look at me so you just get to see one) and her enjoying some yogurt for breakfast. *Me 8 months pregnant.. wishing there was a better angle for a pregnancy shot, but it is what it is. *Chad... being Chad :)
