Except for last night..
Last night she woke up at 1.30, 2.30 and 3.30.. I know she is teething and is probably a little uncomfortable, so I shouldn't complain about her waking up.
At 3.30, I gave her a pacifier, turned on her humidifier {she sounded a little stuffy} and she went right back to sleep, and at 2.30 she stopped crying before I could even get out of bed to help her {which means she made noise that woke me up}.
But at 1.30 I changed her diaper and gave her a bottle.. Nothing out of the ordinary minus the fact that she fell asleep while she was drinking her milk.. She hasn't done that in months and I thoroughly enjoyed it.. Usually once I finish giving her what she needs in the middle of the night I put her right back to bed.. but not last night..
Last night I got to watch her sleep.. She just looked so peaceful sleeping in mommy's arms.. We stayed on the couch for about 10 minutes, Sofie sleeping and mommy watching her.. I can't put into words what that felt like.. I've tried and I keep deleting it.. There is nothing I can say that does this feeling justice.. It's just amazing to know that I made her {with Nery's help} and she is perfect. I studied her little face, taking in her features, her eyes and long lashes, her button nose, chubby cheeks, cute little chin, and sweet tiny lips - even the little drop of milk on the side of her mouth.. I hope it's a moment I never forget..
And now I'm crying like an idiot..
This is obviously not last night, but it's the most recent picture I have of her sleeping in my arms..
This was before mommy grabbed her and put her to bed..
I love our little Sofia and this ride called motherhood
Hugs..
