25 reasons I love post-pregnancy...

25. Instant weight-loss program
24. Having a beautiful daughter on the outside!
23. Cuddling with my daughter in the morning after she has just eaten
22. Watching her sleep and wondering what she's dreaming about
21. Being able to eat and not get sick!
20. Actually being able to hug my husband without a huge stomach in the way!
19. Skinny ankles
18. Being able to walk faster without any side-to-side motions
17. Giving my daughter a bath...
16. Smelling a clean newborn...they smell the best!
15. Kissing her soft, chubby cheeks
14. Hearing her cooing sounds when she is content
13. Gazing into her eyes when she is awake
12. Watching her learn how to smile
11. Watching my husband hold our daughter
10. Waking up every morning knowing I am a mom
9. Feeling closer to my mom because we are both moms now
8. Getting up for 3am feeding...
7. Stroking my daughters head while she sleeps
6. Kissing her cute little feet!
5. Having her curl her fingers around one of my fingers
4. Listening to my husband tell her how much he loves her
3. Singing to my daughter every day
2. Talking to her every day
1. Feeling Heavenly Father's love for this precious, precious, precious, precious, precious little girl!

Pretty much there really is nothing about being a mom that I don't like. I LOVE everything about it! Even changing her diapers! Weird, I know. Everything about her is just so cute and I've waited my whole life to be a mom, and to be a mom with the best husband in the world, and just everything! I'm so excited! I love it! :)

Congrads Amy! Little Jessica is darling! I can't believe that she was so early, but I'm glad to see that you and her are doing so well! You'll make a great mom!
