Seven Months Old

Seven Months New

This kid is amazing.  I don't know how we got so lucky.  He is the happiest, goofiest, sweetest baby and every day I am so grateful to hold him in my arms.  I know you've heard me say it a million times, but motherhood is the best thing to ever happen and I feel like life is exactly the way it should be.

Being back at work is a challenge for me, but knowing he is at home with Mike makes things easier.  When I come home and see him smile at me it makes it all worth it.  I love him so much and am so lucky he's mine :)
