ten weeks

My little guy is ten weeks old today. I can hardly believe it.

I am so totally in love with this baby. I could spend all day gazing into his eyes, watching him smile and coo at me. He is just the sweetest thing. When I go to get him up from his nap, his whole little body positively wriggles with joy when he sees me. He reaches his arms out to me with a big smile on his face and I just HAVE to kiss his chubby little cheeks. I can’t help myself. He stops nursing to smile and coo at me. When he hears his daddy’s voice he immediately perks up and starts looking around the room for him. And does the ‘total body smile’ when he sees his daddy. He coos at his big sisters and sits through 20 verses of "Jingle Bells" listening contentedly to their singing.

This baby is just so sweet. I can’t even describe the joy he brings to our family. He is a gift straight from God. I wish you could all meet him and hold him. But, I’ll settle for being able to share this little bit of him with all of you through this blog.

    I love the phrase “total body smile.” If that doesn’t describe baby love, I don’t know what does. I’ve never heard that before and I love it.

    You have no idea how I long to hold that sweet little cherub of yours. He just looks sooooo….squishy:)
    ‘total body smile’. I’m lovin’ that, too. There really are no other words that describe it quite as well as those.
    How blessed you are.
    Please give Colin a sniff and a hi-5 for sleeping through the night for me!!
    Love and Blessings…

    You are most certainly blessed.
    Aren’t “whole body smiles” the best?

    Look at those eyes! Gorgeous. I love that feeling of just wanting to smother them in kisses-isn’t it great?!
