Wow, what a few weeks we've had. Excitement, exhaustion, pure amazement ... Our first few weeks of parenthood have been simply wonderful. Our little man is doing wonderful and it amazes me everyday how much I love him and how much more I love his daddy every time I look into Lex's eyes. Tim has been wonderful helping out with the baby duties and making sure that I'm ok. I am so blessed to have such a wonderful husband and best friend and now such a beautiful little boy.
When we came home from the hospital my husband had done the sweetest things for me. He had set up the bassinet and all of the diaper changing things in our bedroom so that it would be easier for us to change him. He had also cleaned the top of our dresser off and had these beautiful flowers and a picture frame with Mine and Lex's first picture together. WoW! How in the world did I get so lucky to have a husband that is so sweet. A few days later my sweetie gave me a beautiful necklace and earring set that I absolutely LOVE!!!
I've really missed blogging lately but I'll have to admit, Lex has put all my craftiness on hold. However, today has been his best day yet. Since we brought him home he's wanted to be held by me all day and all night. He screams like crazy if I put him in the crib or bassinet but today he has taken 2 naps in his bassinet!!! Praise the Lord - I think God knew how frustrated I was getting with holding him all of the time. Don't get me wrong, I love to hold my sweet little boy and if I had nothing else to do I would hold him all day and all night. But, I do have at least a few things to do... like laundry and dinner. =)
Lex will be 3 weeks on friday and is back up to his birth weight plus a little. He was 8 lbs 12.5 oz on friday. He is still the cutest baby I've ever seen (I'm a little biased though). And I've only got a few pounds to loose to be back to my normal size... I think 4 or 5 lbs. Yippee!
