Our Miracle Mylee

I can't help but cry everytime I think of the day when Dr. Slater at the fertility clinic told us we only had a 3% chance of ever having another baby. Tears still fall when I think of the day we found out that our InVitro attempt didn't work...and when we thought our nightmare was over and we were finally pregnant only to miscarry...I used to cry to Heavenly Father asking for some kind of peace and understanding...then came Our Mylee...
Mylee is my chubby, smiley, warm bundle of attitude. She LOVES her mom and I am more than happy about that. She strikes up conversations with strangers at the grocery store just with her shocking blue eyes and her big, whole face smile...
She loves food...She has this woody woodpecker coaxing sound she makes when she sees her bottle...she screams at you when you take something interesting away from her like plastic, the T.V. remote, paper, or miniature legos
Mylee is a connoisseur of binkies. She has tried them all and only prefers the playtex kind that you get at Winco. She sports cellulite on her little behind and three fat rolls on each knee, not to mention a dimple in her chin to match her daddy. She smells of lavender and desitin and she is her big brother's biggest fan. When Roper comes home from school she greets him with an ear piercing squeal, so we make sure we aren't holding her! Mylee feels that she needs to be awake at all times during the day so she takes about four, 20 min. naps a day but fortunately sleeps through the night. I can't even begin to tell you how grateful we are for our daughter. We worked so hard and for so long just to get her here and I would never trade that because we cherish even the hard times with her (like colic, teething, ear infections, and separation anxiety). This is our blessing...This is our miracle...This is our Mylee.
