Sweetness

I love those first few days with baby.  The family is all getting to know this new little person.  And as a mama, nothing is expected of you other than to cuddle your baby, and hold him and kiss him and rest.  This was the morning after Sully was born as the sun was rising.  I came in and found both daddy and baby sleeping peacefully.

At home for the first time.  The boys were so excited to meet their newest, tiniest brother.

And after recently reading a mom’s blog post about how we as mother’s are hardly in photos with our kids, despite the fact that we are always there, and how we need to capture those times even if we feel uncomfortable about the way we look, so here is my 3 days postpartum self, wearing my little guy and hanging out outside while Brandon worked on the treehouse.

Oh, how I love this sweet little face.

I read that blog post too, about not being in pictures. I was really bad about that with both girls :( Lovely pics, as usual!
