My baby boy is officially a week old today. I cannot believe that he is here. All the waiting, discomfort, and banning of food was well worth it. So is the lack of sleep during the nighttime hours- definitely worth it. My Blake is so beautiful.
Blake William was born on January 20, 2012 @ 11:43 am.... he is 22 inches long (which puts him in the 100th percentile in height for his age- who would've thought MY son would be at the top of the height chart for his age??!) and weighed 7 lbs 15 oz. No epidural (just Nubain for back labor pain). It relaxed me so much that I fell asleep between contractions...

I don't believe it has truly set in yet that I'm a mommy- his mommy. I keep expecting someone to wake me up from this wonderful dream. I love seeing how much he has changed every day. How much he's grown. He is truly amazing. I keep hoping that I'm doing everything right and that I'm giving him what he needs. But as my heading states- I'm learning as I go along.....
We all parent by the seat of our pants! Every child is different and special. If you give him love, nurishment, and your time....you are doing everything right. Most importantly, enjoy every minute with him!!
