At this time last year, I received news that would change my life.
I didn’t realize it then, but my life would never be the same.
My husband and I would no longer sleep until noon on the weekends. Naps, once a daily occurrence, would be few and far between. I would no longer spend an hour leisurely getting ready in the mornings. Instead, I would run around like a chicken with my head cut off, and most mornings would show up to work with wet hair and no makeup. I would begin to listen to Praise Baby and Veggie Tales instead of Lady GaGa and top 40 tunes. Poop and other bodily functions would become a daily topic of conversation around our household.
On the other hand, my heart would fill to bursting every single time he looked at me and smiled. I would come to love singing Veggie Tales and Praise Baby because he loves to listen to it. I would be dead tired when he wakes up in the middle of the night, but he would smile and me and waking up wouldn’t seem quite so terrible. The very best moments of my day would be the times when he is just about to fall asleep, and he snuggles into my arms and touches my face.
Because he is in my life, I have been changed… for the better.

Awww...they do change our lives, no?
We are big Praise Baby fans in this house.
It is an amazing thing being a Mommy, no matter the journey you took to get there the end result I believe is the same. You loose yourself in someone else and it really doesn't matter. Life no longer revolves around me and I'm OK with that as long as my girls tell me how much they love me and as long as I make them proud nothing else really matters. Cooper is most certainly one very lucky little boy to have you for his Mommy, wet hair and all!
I feel exactly the same way...
Awww. So sweet. When I saw that photo I thought you were going to say you were pregnant AGAIN. Haha.
Cooper is so cute! Love those cheeks!
Awwww...so true! He is so darn adorable!
