~You are the loves of my life~

Justice,

I am so in love with you. I had to go back to work the same day you turned 2 months old. I didn't know leaving you would be this hard. It honestly felt like I was leaving a part of me at home. You DO need pampers though...so off to work I go!

Over the weekend - Daddy and I discovered that if we lay you on your stomach (like "they" say we shouldn't), you'll actually sleep for longer than 10 minutes at a time. In the first month of your life swaddling actually worked. You looked like a little frog-caterpillar hybrid, and you stayed asleep. But your arms have become stronger this month, and you're able to Hulk your way out of all of our swaddles. You're sleeping soundly (on your stomach) in your moses basket right next to me as I write this. I need you next to me at all times when I'm not at work, and I'm embracing the fact that I might just be completely obsessed with you.

I look forward to this next month with you...to more coos, noises, and those almost giggles. To more of those moments like the other night when I was feeding you at 3:30 a.m. and you kicked your sleeping father in the head. He can't breastfeed you, but I'm sure he enjoyed that bonding moment with you nonetheless. Your father and I love you more than you could possibly know, and you won't know or be able to grasp just how much until you have a child of your own. Just please don't have that child when you're still a teenager. Which reminds me: You're not allowed to date until you're 25! ;)

Love,

Mommy
