The joy of being a mom!

So. I'm Jenny and oh so new to the world of "BLOGGING", so this should be fun... I am 32, married and a mom of three. I'm going to dedicate my first post to my precious children. I have two amazing boys, Samuel - 11 and Daniel- 6 and recently God blessed us with a precious princess, Hannah - 6 months. 

My journey as a mom has been quite an amazing one, filled with lots of joy, tears, frustrations but so jam packed with good ol' LOVE.  

I remember always having so much fun dressing up my boys. I dressed them quite preppy (until of course they learned and decided to dress themselves) but yes, simple shorts, t-shirts, hats etc... I didn't have to really worry about combing their hair cause lets face it boys eventually end up with messy hair throughout the day. It took only a matter of maybe seconds to dress Sammy... By the time Daniel was born, ha - forget it - I was a pro, lol, i was dressing him with my eyes closed so-to-speak and in a heartbeat...

Until... Princess Hannah came along. 

She was blessed with the most adorable little dress and I was head on determined to put her in it. What took me back then maybe seconds to dress my boys took me over 5 ETERNITY LONG minutes to put her in a dress!!! My baby girl was born of 6lbs and 10oz... So not only was I feeling defeated lol by that darn adorable little dress BUT O. M. G, i was terrified i was going to break something (my boys were chunkah monkahs compared to Hannah). Sheesh. But what was the big deal in dressing a girl?!?! The same rules applied! Arm there. Arm there. Head there! Agh! Being a mom to a daughter was officially challenging. I had no idea what I was doing or at least it felt that way. 

6 years of not having a newborn and I was left feeling like a brand new parent having no clue what to do or how to do it (it eventually hits you like a rushing wind and it all comes back to you) But oh, forget it and then her having been a girl! How to clean? How to wipe? What to wear? How to comb? What colors to wear? Did I mention the amount of clothing choices the girls have. Dresses, skirts, leggings, sweats, jeans, jeggings... 

What had happened to me LOL - I had been a mom to boys for so long that I could've sworn years ago never being one of those moms that dressed their daughter in pink or dresses etc... In fact Sammy clearly told me that Hannah was not going to be one of those "princessy" kind of girls. HA!!! Yea right!!! She took us ALL by surprise. She is the most feminine and most delicate little girl ever. You can't help but smother her in pinks and purples, and well who am I kidding, every color honestly. Cause clearly navy is the new pink! She wears it so beautifully. The boys with all their toughness - treat her like the queen of the house (i don't exist LOL)...

Now, I've also officially become one of "THOSE" moms that want to dress up like their daughter! I can admit to maybe having thought "oh that's so tacky and corny". But oh jeez it's gotten crazy around here, I now plan what I'm going to wear according to what she's wearing not even me dress her to look like me but me dress to look like her HAHA! There's a difference! If she's in pink I'm in pink, purple - I'm in purple, blue - I'm in blue! And then we take selfies haha to show off how color coordinated we are!!! 

I tell you it's a such a joy being a mom to two boys and now a girl. The boys drive me bananas and are so much crazy fun! And the princess well she's the princess and that says it all. Now that she is 6 months i see her gravitating more towards the boys and the things they do and the toys they play with... It's only a matter of time until she starts to drive THEM crazy and take over their toys... I can hear my boys already in a few months "Mooooommmmmm, Haaaaannnnaaahhhh is taaaakinggg my toooooyyyssss" and i will do what a good mom does best - TUNE. THEM. OUT! LOL... My home is circus or a zoo or both LOL and I'm going crazy half the time trying to juggle them BUT God knows i wouldn't have my life, my home and my world without them or any other way... They truly complete me!

It's such a joy to be called MOM! :)

I saw this quote somewhere (probably Pinterest) "MOTHERHOOD: THE MOST EXHAUSTING, EMOTIONAL, REWARDING AND LIFE ENHANCING JOURNEY A WOMAN CAN TAKE"... this quote is MY wonderful life in a nutshell :)
