Life After Birth

So if I was asked to describe my life at this very moment I would have to say- An Abundence. What does she mean by that? Well, I have an abundance of love for both my children, sometimes I feel like my heart could explode with love. I have an abundance of things to do and not an abundance of time to do them in. I change an abundance of diapers each day, feed Mason in abundance, have an abundance of bills to pay, laundry to do, thank you cards to write, and well I feel like God has just blessed me in , yep you guessed it ABUNDANCE.

Life with Mason is wonderful. He is such an amazing baby. I love having one of each. Addison has been so much fun to dress and play dolls,do makeup with, fix her hair and all those good girly things. Mason is also fun to dress, I love him in all things striped. When I was pregnant I just decided that I love him in strips even though I had never seen him in them before (weird I know). I love to snuggle and kiss his neck, I love having long talks with him, which I also did with Addison maybe that is why she talks so much . Even as a tiny baby I would go in stores just having huge conversations with this tiny baby who obviously couldn't talk back. I just figured the more I talked to her, the more word she would hear, and maybe the sooner she would talk. I love to give Mason baths. He so throughly enjoys having his hair washed. His first couple of baths were horrible- he screamed the entire time. Now, he just relaxes and seems so content. This week he started flashing his first real smiles at me. I love seeing his big deep dimples. He still sleeps a lot but only wakes for feeding at night which is nice. I finally feel like I get some sleep at night. Mason definately has the hang of nursing, since day one he just knew exactly what to do. Apparently he is pretty efficient at it because he was 6.14 when we visited the doctor after leaving the hospital and at his one month check up he was up 9 lbs. He is a GOOD eater! Can't complain about anything other then my body and Addison attitude. Things are slowly falling into place and I have only melted down a few times. I'm starting to get the hang of this new venture- mother of two. I look forward to blogging about my son as well as my daughter in hopes that one day they can read about their lives.
