Happy 15 months.

Happy 15 months Madison!

Your such a little blessing. I didn't realize that you would grow up so fast from a baby who relied on me for everything into a little one that is now exploring and able to talk to me and let me know what you want!You are able to tell me when you want to eat, what you want, as well as able to be say hi, mama, dada, baba (blanket), and grandma on command :) Plus you love to go outside on the balcony and watch to people watch which I adore you so much.

You even surprised me today by taking the nursing pump and your cup full of juice taking your juice and somehow inserting it into the pump, later showing me the results after. Oh my gosh, you just cracked me up and I couldn't stop laughing. Oh my, Madison I love you :)

'Check this out mom.'

She's figuring it out here :)

The final result.

Your such a little gift, I don't think you realize it baby girl :) 

I love you!

Mama's day.

As my second Mother's day approaches, I can't help but reflect on the past year with how things have changed. All the responsibilities seem to fall on my shoulder in the household with laundry, cleaning house, and keeping up with Madison, the toddler-on top of that, I am a full time student and the stress has been overwhelming for me especially lately. As Mother's day is tomorrow, I wish I could ask for a day to just relax, but I can't. Instead I'll be prepping for a midterm bright and early Monday morning (boo, I know), but I just don't know what to feel anymore. My emotions have been on a roller coaster lately with everything, I need a break from it all and sit back and reflect on what I have in my life with my little family with Madison and Jon is what I need.

Thank you Madison for being my little toddler who always reminds me that I need to push myself, yet I need to enjoy life when I am stressing out like right now.

To those mamas with any baby or toddler keeping them busy then give them a day to relax and not just run around running, instead try to help out and not just watch them slowly lose themselves in the everyday aspects. Be there for them especially on a day for Mother's day.
