Shopping Cart

Yesterday was Raegan's first time riding in the cart like a big girl. At first, we didn't know if she'd be ready to sit in the cart without being in  her carseat as usual, but I knew she would like sitting up better so she could have a view of the world around her.

She was a hit. She's so popular, and a few people stopped to tell me how cute she was. Keali'i and I even had a nice conversation with an elderly couple who were in awe of her. 

She had a hard time sitting up on her own, occasionally leaning over to the side, so I put something to support her so she wasn't sitting sideways.

All in all, it was a fun experience. We look forward to many more shopping trips with our little girl!

Four Wonderful Months

Four months ago today, I held my beautiful baby in my arms for the very first time. Since then, it's been a crazy ride. 

Raegan's little personality has begun to blossom. She's sweet, happy, and sometimes temperamental. She's only rolled over from her tummy to her back a few times. She thinks her fists make the best chew toys. She has yet to sleep through the night. She is quite the talker, and she's learned that it's fun to grab mommy's hair. She loves a change in scenery, and she always wants to be up and looking around. I love that she's a very social baby, and she tries to make friends with everyone she meets.

So far, as a new mom, I've learned that sometimes the best thing you can do is trust your instinct. I know my daughter best, and I can take care of her better than anyone else can. I hold her so close to my heart. She really brings a wonderful light to mine and Keali'i's life. We can't imagine a better little companion that we could've had. 

Here's to many more months to come!
