I’ve tried a million times (Seriously. A MILLION.) to write this entry celebrating NikkiZ’s six month birthday. However, I have no ability to put into words exactly what I’m feeling. (I bet this is why I got a rejection letter from ClubMom. That and my distaste for proper grammar and/or spelling.) Let’s just say she rocks my world in many ways. Hell she rocks my SOCKS. Because nothing expresses the true sentiment of this sweet moment than the words of Dr. Seuss.
We went through a lot of heartache and loss before we got pregnant with NikkiZ. Nothing will ever erase that. Then the pregnancy itself threw us some curves we had to navigate and the anxiety I suffered? MY GOD – THE ANXIETY. I feared losing her every day of the 40 weeks. Hell, I feared it day AND night. Looking back on that I wish I could give that girl a hug and say, “It will be okay. It will be better than ‘okay’ – it will be PERFECT.”
Because it is. In every way.
Happy half-a-year, NikkiZ!
And mom, congrats on living your dream. Perfect sure feels nice, eh?
Happy 6 -months! She’s adorable. Can my son ask her out for a date in 20 years?

Very well written and she is perfect
happy 6 months…she is precious.
Happy 6 Months to your adorable babe! The post is just perfect and so is she. (I got a rejection letter, too, so don’t feel bad. Could be because I literally applied at 4:59 on the deadline day and half-assed my writing samples…mmmm…possibly.)
Happy 6 month Birthday!! 🙂 🙂 You guys have done good….she is a beauty! 🙂 🙂
Oh Zoot, I truly understand what you wrote. I felt the same way for all 32 weeks of mine. But the end result is perfect 🙂 Happy 6 month birthday NikkiZ!

Zoot, you make me feel at least a little bit better. Seeing as how i’m mired in the fear, but so want the happiness you have now. 🙂
I’m so happy that you’re so happy. She’s adorable and seems to be worth all the hard times you went through before you got to have her in your life. Happy Six Months to NikkiZ!

NikkiZ’s 6-month birthday is the same as my daughter’s “real” birthday! I never figured that out before! It’s a great day.
