The Snyders in Germany

You have made my life no longer than the width of my hand.

 My entire lifetime is just a moment to you;

Each man's life is but a breath.

Psalm 39:5

Wow, it's already December the 14th

the day the Lord blessed us with sweet baby P.

This is will always be a special day for us.

Peyti is such a smart, smiley, funny, talkative,

compassionate, independent, and loving baby. 

her favorite things to do lately are:

taking roxy, the family boxer on walks 

dancing

playing with other babies/kids

blowing kisses

saying "dog"- all things wonderful are dogs

giving "love" (hugs/kisses"

trying mommy and daddy's food

playing hide and go seek

playing chase

being mischievous

getting into shoes and books

some special memories from her first year of life:

when she was 5-6 months old she began saying "mama"

and "dada" and she would chase me around the house crawling

and saying "maaama!"  "mama!" 

when she first learned to wave she would wave at every person we saw..

even non people...

recently she's been waving to mannequins with no reply...

she now does her "all done" baby sign,

with one hand twisting, one opening and closing

and she also does it when she is tired/ 

wants free from stroller/

or is just "done" with something

one time, in the church nursery

another baby was very sad and upset 

and i was told that peyti was so concerned for her

and she'd go to the other baby and pat her, to comfort her

when aaron first returned to work,

he came home, and went to the shower right away

and peyti crawled after him, sat at the bathroom door

and cried hitting the door saying "dada"

she was only about 6-7 months old

i could go on, but i won't.

as someone once told me,

"the days are long, but the years fly by"

i have enjoyed this past year so much.

i can't imagine missing out on all of peyti's special moments

i'm thankful to God for every laugh, smile, 

cuddle, the time spent nursing her, 

cold, fussy day, challenge, frustration

for all that these moments, i wouldn't trade any of it

and i'm so glad for the blessing  of being at home 

with my baby girl peyti..
