for nine months, i imagined what you might look like and how you would feel in my arms. then suddenly the wait was over and all i could do was stare at you as tears streamed down my face. you were everything i had dreamed you would be and more.
i nuzzled my cheek against your soft cheek and all of that silky brown hair-your tiny warm body fit perfectly in the crook of my arm. we were a match made in heaven. my heart melted as i stared at your beautiful brown eyes, wrinkled nose and pink lips. you were so beautiful and i just wanted to stop time and take you in. now, you are already three months old. 90 days has passed since we first introduced you to our family.
you are sleeping through the night already and nap so well in your daddy's lap. he loves that! eating has been your favorite pastime, but lately, you have been flashing that million dollar smile at anyone who glances your way. you have the deepest dimples in both cheeks and anytime you barely grin, they pop out, i love it! we are just starting to hear the first sounds of your sweet voice when you coo and laugh. the last few days, you have started to squeal too. preslee and mason love to tickle your toes and under your chin to see you smile.
there was nothing more precious than those first few minutes of life with you. but, as the days and months pass, you continue to bring us even more joy. you are nothing short of a miracle and we love you so much!
happy birthday baby!
love, mommy
