1st Christmas

Dear Son,

  Christmas is in 2 days and I'm so excited for your very first one! We got you books and a couple educational toys. You got your very own stocking too!

I know you won't remember it, but I hope to make your first Christmas a good one and take photos of you "opening" your gifts.

Mama loves you!

Christmas Time

Dear Son,
 
 Christmas is upon us, but we have yet to get a tree or decorate with lights. I hope to get a tree this weekend so you can marvel at the pretty lights and colors.

I tried to give you a rubber teether last night to see what you'd do and you went crazy chomping on it over and over. I guess you truly are about to start teething!

I also shook this colorful toy with noise and you got so excited, you were about to jump out of my arms. You become more and more active every single day, its amazing.

We have a photo session tomorrow with a professional photographer, I'm super excited to see how they come out!

Well mama is at work so I guess I should get busy, huh.

Love you,
 Mama

Surgery Done!

Dear Son,

 You were SO brave during the ordeal at the hospital on Tuesday. I was very proud, you weren't afraid at all until after you got out. I wish it had been easier and quicker for you. I wish you didn't cry for 4 hours straight. I wish the nurses would have given you something for pain more quickly. I'm sorry your favorite paci was lost forever!

Seeing you all hooked up to wires brought flashbacks to your NICU days, I hated it.

The lactation consultant says you are not quite ready to try breastfeeding, so you and I will work on it alone and go back to see her in a week.

I love you baby boy,
 Mama
