three months!

i can hardly believe it but this little man is already three months (on the 20th). i had to skip his two month post because he was in the hospital at the time and it was just too much to deal with (more on that later). we had some major hiccups in the first couple months of Wyatt's life, but things are pretty much as amazing as can be now. he is such a happy and easy baby it's almost a joke. i can't believe how much God blessed us with such a mellow babe. he is the coolest kid around.

some of the things that he absolutely LOVES are: music (especially Creedence), getting tickled, talking, kicking, chewing on his bibs, putting his whole fist in his mouth, kisses.

pretty much the only thing he absolutely HATES: tummy time

one month!

i can't believe this baby boy is already one month old. time is flying, but also slow as molasses. the nights are long, and sometimes the days are even longer. adjusting to parenthood is pretty difficult, but also the most amazing thing i've ever experienced. i've already learned so much about myself and about David while we learn all about Wyatt. he has had a pretty bumpy road the last couple of weeks due to some gas and indigestion, as well as probably some reflux issues. i also discovered on my own that he had an upper lip tie (they should really check for those things in the hospital) and it had been negatively effecting our breastfeeding. we ended up having it revised which was really painful for the poor dude, but thank heavens for baby Tylenol. he handled it like a champ. 

i just can't believe how much he has grown. looking at the photos from his one week photo shoot makes me realize just how much he has changed. he can hold his head up on his own, he smiles all the time, he loves to be burped, he hates having his arms swaddled up and almost always finds a way to get them out, and he makes the cutest noises (especially while drifting off to sleep).

he really is just the sweetest and smartest little baby i've ever encountered. i know, i know... i'm really biased, but it's true!

one week ago today our Wyatt Robert finally decided to join us. he was born on Tuesday, January 20th, 2015 at 4:12am weighing 9.5 lbs, measuring 22.5 inches, and completely stealing my heart. we are absolutely over the moon in love with this little man. i cannot even begin to express how my heart has just completely burst open and made me new. this week has flown by. it's been the most incredible, joyful, exhausting, emotional, precious, and gorgeous time of my life. he has made me a new woman and David a new man. we are beyond in love with him. he is truly a most perfect gift from God and i feel so insanely blessed to be his mama. soon i will post photos from this last week and maybe share his birth story, but i just wanted to make sure i got in his one week photo shoot. now off to feed the little guy!
