Let's start this thing!

Amazing how time flies...I created this blog a few days before Josiah was born with all intentions of starting off giving sweet little anecdotes of his first few days. Well no one told me how all consuming this precious little boy would be! So here I am nearly 3 months later writing my first post.

Things seem to have settled down considerably since those first few weeks. I can't seem to remember the starting point....I think that having a child is one of those things that just seems like it has always been...mostly because once they come they are all you think about. But thankfully and slowly things are falling into place. I am able to eat 3 meals, take a shower, and get housework done...all of which were quite a challenge to accomplish at one point or another. Everything changes so fast.

As I nursed Josiah to sleep this evening I started to think about all the things I love about him. I think I'll start this blog off with that...

I love...
-the way he looks so peaceful laying in my arms
-the way he rests his feet on the arm rest
-the way he likes to hold my hand (or shirt) when he is nursing
-the way he wiggles his toes in the breeze
-how he smiles the minute I peek over the crib when he wakes up from a nap
-the warmth of his cheek when I kiss it
-how he leans over and rests on one side of his bathtup when I am washing him up
-how much he loves to "talk" in the morning
-how healthy and big he has gotten
-that his favorite teether is my finger
-his big beautiful eyes and how he loves to look at everything
-his calm and peacful temperment and easy-going attitude
-that he loves his room and feels comfortable sleeping in his own cozy crib


Most of all I love that he knows I will take care of any need he ever has and feels completely at peace in my arms.
