some things i don't want to forget

dangerous to leave momma alone while nursing she does silly things to my hair
i swear he has beautiful eyes... i just keep taking his pic with them closed.
i almost never smile in photos unless they are candid.
 i am happy don't let the expression fool you.

the other things  i don't want to forget.

When W & I work together we are unstoppable.

Wats is on a trip.  the circus offered him work in Boston for the week and as hard as it is for him to be away he is the only one working. the choice was sort of a no brainer. My goal this week is to journal each day so watson will have a record of this tiny magical little being that has consumed all our love and then some. My dad & mom are here to help out. 

OSD's umbilical stump fell off today, his circ. is healed and he had mini "bath" today rather than a wash cloth bath. he got his hair washed which was good because it was getting really oily. 

I think he has a cold. today he has been fussy and really only wanted to nurse or be held by me but i finally got him to really sleep around 8:30ish tonight and he is still sleeping and it is now 11:15 pm. so i suspect any minute he will wake up to eat.

these last few days have been tough. (i am not stupid i knew they would be) but i don't mean tough like i was unprepared i mean tough emotionally. i look at this tiny little baby and i realize that already he is different he is growing... my only other baby is frozen in time this baby is changing.

I have taken a photo of him each day since he was born. i hope to one day make a slide show for him that is him growing up. but right now i'll be glad if i remember to check my blood glucose   (like i forgot to do while i was writing this post!) 

but mostly i want to remember that i am a good parent, even when i cry or am sad i am still a good mom and i love this little boy, his dad and his sister more than air.

I miss you watson and i can't wait for you to come home so we can have some adventures with our tiny monster baby.
