This is the first longest stretch for him to be gone since baby Kayla arrived. Needless to say this has been the longest 5 days for me. Kayla & I both can't wait to see him.
It's felt like I've been living like a single mom since he's been gone. Working & taking care of baby Kayla all by myself. For the most part it's been ok, we've managed. I actually took a short nap today with Kayla & that was definitely over due. I feel so much better even though it was only for about an hour.
I can't get over how peaceful she looks when she's sleeping. I know I should be catching some Z's while she is, but sometimes I catch myself just starring at her beautiful face while she's in dream land.
Over the past few days, Kayla & I have been playing dress up with all the outfits that I know are getting a little too snug & soon she will no longer be able to wear anymore. Why you may ask? Because I want pictures! I want pictures of her in every single outfit so that I have proof to show people just how damn cute she was in each one. Then when she gets older I can show her the pictures & hopefully she doesn't cringe at the outfits I dressed her in.
I know I've turned in to one of those crazy mom's who play dress up with their child, but I simply can't help it. It must be an illness or something, who knows. Surely I'm not the only crazy mom out there that does this, I mean seriously.
When you're a little girl growing up you play dress up & house with your dolls... and now being a grown woman, I get to do it for real. It's my real life "house".
As Kayla lays there like a little angel while I write this blog, I think to myself... how much in love I am with my husband & daughter. It's amazing the love I have in my heart for both of them.
My one prayer is that both of them hold me on the high pedestal that I hold them on.
I love you honey & my sweet baby Kayla.
