I love my baby one

I'm so excited that Lil' Bob and I will have Thanksgiving visitors this year! YEAH!!! Both my sisters and Grammy will get to see Lil' Bob! :) He is very glad that everyone is coming because he hasn't met his Aunties yet. He is already smiling and enjoying his 3-6 month clothes even though he will only be 9 weeks tomorrow! He is growing like a weed! Grammy may not even recognize him!

We love you all!!!!

When Robert Graham Smiles

When he smiles, it lights up my heart. I can't wait for my sisters to meet this beautiful boy! I can't wait for him to smile at them and laugh, and play! :) He is so much fun!

My sweet baby one

So precious!

Everyone always says that you can never imagine how much you'll possibly love your baby, but until you have one you are skeptical. Now, I totally understand what they are talking about! Even through all the sleepless nights, exhaustion, and poopy diapers all over the best outfits, I cannot imagine my life without this little boy. I would not take back the decision to be a Mommy at all. I can't believe how wonderful he is. It's not just the smell... yes, the baby smell of Johnson's baby wash... it's not just the fact that he depends solely on me... it's not just that my husband helped create him... it's that God has entrusted me with His child, His precious one, and He chose me and only me to be the one to feed him, to love him, and to be his Mommy.

Something else I've been thinking about is those who cannot have children. I know it is solely God's decision, but I wonder why some of us are blessed while others remain barren. I wish to ponder this further in future blogs.

First Days With Lil' Bob

I have to be honest here, our first few days were rough! We celebrated Robert's first days with a lot of anxiety...will he get rid of this jaundice quickly enough, is he eating enough, will he get back up to his birth weight so we can relax a little??? All these questions and more were our thoughts as the days went by and things seemed a little slow.

One thing is for sure, God is faithful, even when we act crazy and lack the faith to even pray.
