Tomorrow, my baby girl is turning 7! I truly can’t believe it. It has gone by so quickly but I still remember all the baby stages like it was yesterday. When I think back with the baby moments, I remember a lot of good but also a lot of stressful times. I remember the 12 hours straight of screaming from her horrible colic, as well as the not sleeping through the night until 8 months old. I also remember going through these phases with Zane who is now 4 and Taylor who just turned one. In order to get through those hard times, you must look at the #formulaforhappiness and what gets you through those tough times!
WHAT IS OUR FORMULA FOR HAPPINESS!
Some of those special moments for me, include spending a few minutes each night with the children just reading them their favorite bedtime story. For me with my last, I remember the very first time Hayley read to her baby sister when she was just a few days old. It melted my heart to see their instant bond and how special those moments were.
Another #formulaforhappiness is watching my husband get up with Taylor every Saturday morning, despite his long work weeks. While he can easily sleep in, he cherishes the one on one time with Taylor when everyone else in the house is sleeping. He usually ends up taking her for a week, bathing her, feeding her, and then playing with her. As a mom, this melts my heart seeing their amazing bond.
I also love just spending a few minutes each day and being thankful for my last born. With Taylor, it was very touch and go at the beginning because I become seriously ill around 11 weeks pregnant with her. The doctors were not sure if she, nor I, were going to make it. It turned out I had the swine flu and all bets were off if any of my medicines would negatively effect her. Well, thankfully she is a beautiful, happy, and healthy little girl. I love to spend each morning literally just staring at her!

She is so cute! I love the new Gerber formula. I wish I’d had it when my kids were babies.
I always fed my boys Gerber when they were babies. It is a brand I trust.
Our formula for happiness is just spending quality time with both boys. They are growing up so fast, it’s hard not to just sit and play with them all day.
I would have loved a sleep consultation with my first kid. She never seemed to sleep!
Such a cute baby. My granbabies all were raised on Gerber. Have always been a trustworthy brand.

Gerber is such a great brand! I haven’t used baby food in a long while since we found out about BLW but before that? All we used was Gerber!
Gerber is a fantastic company. I will have to share this with my friends with little ones.
I could have used a sleep consultant when my oldest was a baby. He was the worst sleeper!
