* 12 weeks old!!*

* I cannot believe that my beautiful baby girl is 12 weeks old!! Time is going by so fast, and she amazes me more and more everyday!! She is right on track with development and growth. She is still the happiest little girl as well. She only cries SOMETIMES when she is hungry..but even then it's more like a whimper. She is an extreme morning person, which mommy is so NOT!! But luckily I get to wake up to her singing, giggling, and talking.....so I suppose that is worth waking up early to :) On Sunday Zoe will officially be 3 months old and it's still so hard to believe... it kinda seems like just yesterday we were bringing her home for the first time. She still looks mostly like Eric, but as she is getting older she is starting to look a bit like mommy..which I love :) We got her pictures taken for 12 weeks...when we get the rest of them, I will post them on here!! *

* Surprises for Daddy*

So funny story..... As Eric was changing Zoe on the changing table, he's doing the normal deal cleaning her up, getting ready to switch diapers and BOOOOOM the biggest fart of all times, and Zoe shot poop out all over Eric and across the room HIT HER SWING!!! hahahahaha Seriously the funniest thing I have ever seen!! Lucky for mommy, this stuff never happens to me. Eric gets peed on, pooped on, and spit up on ALL the time. Me...not so much ;) And every time she does these charming bodily fluids for daddy..she delivers them with a BIG ol smile on her face! Can't help but LOOOOOOVE that! hhahahaha Thank you baby Zoe for being nice to mommy and saving all these surprises for your daddy!

* Dedicated *

Yesterday Zoe was dedicated at church and it was a truly amazing experience for Eric and I both. Zoe was such a happy little baby up there too, smiling at everyone. The pastors prayed over each baby, gave us a certificate and a copy of the prayer to say over Zoe everyday :) Our pastor also stated that Zoe is going to be a peacemaker :) Which is so amazing because the whole time I was pregnant with little miss Zoe, I prayed over her everyday that she would bring peace and joy into my grandparents house hold every time I took her there to visit. Both of my grandparents are ill and not going to be around much longer, and I really just wanted Zoe to bring new life back into their home when she was there...to light up their lives and give them peace. And that is exactly what was spoke over her. A true testimate of just how amazing God is!!!! :)

*Beautiful Baby Zoe*

* 7 Weeks *

I cannot believe that it has already been 7 weeks!!! Time really is flying by. This experience has been a frustrating, amazing, stressful, blast!! Zoe is the perfect baby. Happy all the time except when she is hungry or has a burp. She doesn't even get mad when she has an icky diaper. She smiles all the time now when you talk to her...big beautiful smile with big dimples!! She also talks to us all the time now which is so sweet. When we put her in her swing she coos and talks to the animals on the mobile. She isn't a big fan of belly time because she can't push herself up which totally frustrates her, but she does last a little while. Zoe sings herself to sleep every night which prevents me from falling asleep...I have to stay up and listen to her it's so adorable!! Now that I have her, I really can't picture my life without her. I don't know how I ever felt complete before...I most definitely was not!! She is sleeping 4 hours a night now which is really nice, although last night she slept 6 HOURS!!! It was amazing, but I woke up freaked out...which is totally normal because I hear all moms say that first time their baby slept longer then like 4 hours they freaked out thinking something was wrong. Hopefully this is something that she will keep up...fingers crossed :) Eric is the best dad!! He is totally comfortable with her now in every way and has really done an amazing job for someone who has never really been around babies. Zoe just adores him too....she smiles so big every time she hears him talk. I love watching him with her....I fall in lover over and over every time!! Being a daddy suites him perfectly!!

*Newborn Pictures*

We had Zoe's newborn pictures done and they are beautiful. Although we didn't get all the shots we wanted to get because she got really frustrated and we couldn't finish. The photographer did however get some amazing ones.I don't have them all on the computer yet, but here are a few of them :)
