Journey with me during this bit of change. We will see what comes down the road and meanders into our path. I still enjoy LomasLOL because well, we LOL a lot around our home and pretty much anywhere and it worked as a blog title for me when I started blogging. Now a new path.

One Month Old (kind of)


Sept. 25th marks the one month anniversary of my baby boy! He has grown so much in just one month, it is truly amazing. I had to snap this picture of him sleeping since when he is awake we are usually nursing, changing a diaper or I am busy running around the house while he is enjoying his alone time (no guilty feelings here...yeah, right!) Anyway I am thinking how quickly Nov. 3rd is going to come and how I am not quite ready to give up all the time I get to spend with him.
In one month:
-we have had many visitors: family and friends are always welcome to give and get hugs!
-my baby boy has smiled at me so many times and I can't wait for him to smile at me for "reals"
-I totally love the way he looks at me while he is nursing...those eyes! How am I ever going to capture them on my camera?
-he sleeps at the most 3 hours at a time, mostly just 2...we are clearly sleep deprived!
-we have changed more poopy diapers than I ever care to remember (can't think about the landfill, can't think about the landfill....)
-love how he loves his mobile above his changing table and now watches the little animals go around
-love how his big brother's voice calms him down
-love how he looks in every cute outfit we put him in
-love how he is more awake and aware of the world around him...at the same time saddened by his departure from newborn into infant stage
-love how my mom and sister stop by or call everyday to get their z fix
-love how big brother holds him, loves him and helps out so much!

I could go on, but this blog would be a novel! Here we go into month 2...what is next?

Holy moly! Where did that month go? It's fun though when those babes start to actually fill out their cute little outfits. He is adorable, btw!

Silly sister...how quickly you forget when you are lacking so much sleep!

Such a sweet picture! I am sad that the newborn phase is almost over...but Maya is starting to sleep for longer stretches at night so that is a plus.
