"Ladies please! There is enough of me to go around!"

The light of my life is 2 months old today. Times sure does fly!

I think its hysterical how serious he is when he takes pictures. As soon as this picture was taken, Stinky Butt made true on his name, and off we went to the changing table. I might add, that as soon as we were on the changing table and Mommy was elbow deep in crap (literally), we were all smiles! I sure do love that goofy toothless grin!

Two Months! I can't get over how big he has gotten, how beautiful he is when he sleeps, how something so small can smell SO BAD at times. I can't believe that he is mine and Shay's. We don't have to return him to anyone (not that we could... I hear that the state frowns on that).

Eli has brought so much love and joy to our lives. 60 days of baby smells. 60 days of dark blue eyes looking back at you, loving you unconditionally. 60 days of 3am feedings. 60 days of walking the living room floor trying to get someone to sleep. 60 days of telling Sprocket to stop making out with the baby.

In the past 60 days, my favorite moments are when I am rocking Eli in the rocking chair after he has eaten. He rests his head on my shoulder and looks around. I pat his back, and kiss the back of his head. In less then 5 minutes, I can feel the weight get heavier on my shoulder. I know in that instant that my child is fast asleep. I take 5 minutes more of rocking, saying "I love you", and rubbing his back. Then I put my sleeping angel in his crib, and quietly walk out of the room. I turn around once to look at his angelic face and feel my heart hurt. Its amazing to love someone this much.
