Thoughts of 2014

It's the first day of the new year, and I'm actually sitting down updating my blog. I really hope to update more, as I want to remember the day to day life with my little Henry. I can't believe he is 3 months old next week.

I am slowly going to play catch up month by month, but for now I am going to reflect on the past year.

Daniel and I were talking about 2014 last night and discussing the hardest and the best of times.
The best for both of us was the obvious: becoming parents and watching our little miracle grow and develop. Henry truly makes our day every day. He is such a smiley boy- when he's being held that is. He loves to be held and have attention every moment that he's awake. He just makes us laugh because he never. stops. moving. If he's laying in bed and going to sleep, he's still moving something, whether it's his leg, foot or arms. He gets it honestly... from his dad and Grandma Leman.

Daniel's hardest for the year was being in school, working, and adjusting to a new baby. That was a tough month(or two). He wasn't getting much sleep and was extremely run down so he kept getting sick over and over again.Thankfully we are done with that, because he graduated!

My hardest? Daniel thought I'd say child birth. :) Nope...being sick almost my whole pregnancy was way worse and honestly the first month or two of Henry's life was rough. Breastfeeding was very rough for the first couple of months. I think we went to the doctor every week for awhile there. I'm so thankful things are going better, Praise God! The only thing is Henry's not gaining tons of weight... he was just 10.2 pounds last week at almost 3 months. But we love our little peanut...It's kind of fun he's stayed little for longer. :)

We're both looking forward to another year of being parents and watching our little bundle of joy grow up. I don't want him to grow up, but at the same time I know every stage is so fun as they interact more and more with you.

We are thankful and blessed!!
