Oliver














It has been four weeks since the arrival of our new little family member. I still can't quite believe that there's a baby in my world. You would think the constant diaper changing, middle-of-the-night feedings, and crying would help it all sink in. In reality it's all the quiet moments when I find myself looking down at this angelic little being and feel myself full of awe and wonder at the fact that he's mine to keep. There's nothing like snuggling a newborn to make all the normal daily worries about housecleaning and to-do lists evaporate into total insignificance.

  2. He is totally blond--right down to his eyebrows and lashes. I think there may be a hint of red in there, too. His eyes are bright blue so far, though. Not a hint of brown. I guess it's hard to tell in this picture.
