Our little precious son is now 9 weeks old and we are in absolute love with him. He has blessed our lives and our families. It's so crazy how much you can love someone so special - especially when you've created them. It trips me out. I stare at him and feel nothing but gratitude and love. I am so blessed. We are so blessed. He is our blessing.

 

 

He is growing way too fast and it makes me sad. You know what bugs me? When you're pregnant, time just goes so slow but once their out, time just wants to speed up and go by fast for some odd reason. Everyday he is growing and changing. He's gaining a lot more weight. He makes our arms numb and very sore after 5 minutes of holding him. He has caused me to have a lot of shoulder, neck and back pain when I hold him, feed him. He causes me to look like a Zombie due to lack of sleep. He drains me out of energy and milk because he eats like there's no tomorrow. But it is all absolutely worth it.

 

 



 

Three days old - He could perfectly sit in his car seat and feel snuggled up by the support cushions that Nana made. He slept only if someone was holding him. He couldn't eat a lot because I was just starting to produce milk. He didn't keep his eyes open for long. His umbilical cord fell off. He would do lots of poo's. His only expression was pretty much the mad dog look.

 

 

One Week old - He had already put on lots of weight. He was becoming more aware of things. He loved to be held. He loved to sleep during the day, but night time - yeah nah. He was nocturnal lol. He had this relaxed facial expression and his mad dog look.

 

 

 

Not sure how old he is in these, but he just kept on growing and growing. He loves sleeping with his mouth open. It's crazy how different he looks in all his photos.

 

 

I've lost track of weeks/months with the photos but how much has his look changed? His grown so much within the past two months. I miss him as a new newborn. But I do love watching him grow and develop things everyday.

 

 

He's now 9 weeks.

 

He's trying to hold his bottle by putting his hands on it. He's giggled/laughed for the first time. He loves when I sing to him (before he didn't). He smiles more. He loves his lip being tickled. He's VERY heavy now. He's perfect.

 

He's our Mahli boy :)
