Just a quick catch up

Today is June 27th. One year since Wyatt's official due date.

It's hard every day that I'm awake but I am thankful to my Heavenly Father for my BEAUTIFUL daughter. She's the best thing in the whole world and her daddy and I are SOOOO happy to have her and to see her smile every single day. She's amazing and worth all the pain and struggle to have gotten her here.

I always say the same things now every time I write but I can't imagine my feelings changing :)

McKenna is going on 15 weeks (3 1/2 months) and I can't believe how much she has really grown in that short amount of time. She goes to the dr in a couple weeks so I'll be able to give you her update after that appointment.

I have to be honest, I miss being pregnant and if I could afford it I probably would have another one right now LOL but that's NOT going to happen so hold off on your comments good or bad HAHAHA

I'm just so thrilled to soak up all the time we have with McKenna and enjoy every single giggle and dirty diaper surprisingly :) It's all wonderful and amazing and exciting and tiring  and stressful wrapped up into one.

Looking at my daughter really puts it all into perspective and it's all the cliché things your parents may have told you as you grew up. SHOCKER haha but it's all true and the way you feel love COMPLETELY changes when you look at your child for the first time. Even from the first ultrasound to the moment you hear their first cry to the first time they look at you and have recognition in their stare. It's all amazing and beautiful and wonderful and painful.

I continue to miss my son with every smile and cry from McKenna because I know I lost the opportunity to see and hear these things from him here on this earth but I continue to be grateful for the knowledge that I will see him and be with him again one day. Life sucks sometimes but there is always at least ONE thing to be thankful for and to live for, so be thankful if you can list MANY things that you can be thankful for because there is always someone facing more difficult struggles.

Enjoy every breath, every sunrise, every smile from a stranger- be that strange smile hehe

Love everyone and take a breath. It's not as hard as it seems. (easier said than done)
