3 Months Of Change
3 months ago tomorrow, I had just finished the hardest and longest 27 hours of my life. It resulted in the beautiful gift of Aubrey. Each day now that I'm a mom flies by faster than the last. Aubrey has lit up my life in so many amazing ways. As I look back at pictures, I can't believe how little he was and how hopeless and dependent. Now, in front of me is this little developing personality. He loves snuggles, laughing at my singing, and acting like a big boy. He gets tired at 9:30, 2 and 7 and eats like a pig every 2 hours. After 3 months I am getting to know my little boy inside and out. You can see where he gets his idiosyncrasies from and love all of his quirks. He is slowly starting to develop into this amazing little human and we are trying to help mold him into the smart, funny little gentleman we are sure he will be. As a parent, I am realizing, you can really only do so much. He will become his own person and you are just there to make sure he survives. It's a huge lesson in not being in control of everything as I like to be. But, as I get to know him, I love this person he has independently created. I am so proud to be his mommy and can't wait until he can understand my love for him. These past 3 month, I have changed so much with him. If this is how I feel after 3 months, how am I going to handle his 1 year birthday. Make that, his high school graduation. I think I'll be sent to the mental hospital lol. Thank you to whatever higher power caused Rob and I to make the biggest and best mistake of my life. I am forever grateful to be my little monkeys mother. Always Proud, Katie Rose xo
