Yesterday my baby boy turned 3 months. He is growing up before my eyes and already I've become pretty sentimental about it. I hate to admit it but I've spent the better part of the last two days just admiring him while he nurses, trying to take in all that he is.
There have been more than a few times when I get an overwhelming sense of sadness at the thought of him growing up so fast, and I cant lie and say I haven't shed a few tears over it. When I look at him my heart feels though it might burst at any moment and I am constantly amazed at my love for this tiny human.
He is starting to smile more now and the mornings are my favorite. He wakes happy (and hungry of course) and after I nurse him I love to give him kisses and play in our bed for a bit before we get up. I know these days won't last forever, and all too soon they will be gone so I am trying to enjoy them and remember everything I can about my time spent with my little man. :)
He has already learned to roll over from his tummy to his back, and we are working with him on "tummy time" so he can strengthen his muscles and learn to sit up and crawl in the next few months. Before we know it he will be moving around and getting into everything! ;)
But for now I'd like him to stay my baby for just a bit longer...I love you my sweet Jeremiah. ♥
I loved the time I spent while nursing my child it's amazing how demanding and yet super rewarding it is! Enjoy it while you have it because they grow up way too fast! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy 3 months Jeremiah! :)
ReplyDeleteTime flies! I feel like you were just announcing that he was born.
ReplyDeleteAww, he is beautiful. I understand your desire for him to stay a baby--I still think that about my girl who is a year older than your little guy!
