Sleeping Abby


 

Last night you spent an awful long time talking to yourself, and said, “Stuck” more than once. You stopped after a minute or two of that, but I was still worried about you so I went to check on you. I was awed by what I saw. There you were, laying in your bed, on your back (a first) and taking up nearly the entire crib mattress!

OK, let me restate that last sentence so it sinks in fully. A crib mattress is 52 inches long and it seemed like you were taking up like 90% of it. I’m sure that can’t possibly be true, but it was just so weird. I remember when you were a little teeny tiny baby and I’d put you in the crib and it seemed to dwarf you and I thought to myself, “You’re just so small” and now to look at you it’s hard to believe that you every weighed a measly 5 pounds.

I’m constantly amazed at how much you’re growing and I need to stop and remind myself with these notes so I don’t ever forget how awesome of a time this is for both of us. So, please don’t mind me, I’m just smelling the roses.
