1st Month with John

April 27, 2012

John is 5 weeks old today. This first month with him went by so fast – hard to believe our little guy came home a little over a month ago. He is absolutely perfect and even though we’ve had many sleepless nights, he melts our hearts every single day! It’s been a joy to watch Nikolas embrace him so well. He’s so sweet to John and even landing a hand when needed. So far, life with 2 boys has been better than I ever thought it would.

As promised here are a few photos of the boys.

I ordered their matching outfits from Tiny Sprouts. I remember coming across Tracey’s work a few years back and bookmarking her shop – only wishing to purchase a few things if we ever had another baby. So happy my wish came true! Her work is exquisite! These matching outfits have been a hit and we’ve received so many compliments.

We never ordered hospital pictures for Nikolas – I wish we had. So when John came along, we knew we wanted to capture those early moments and opted for some family pictures. I especially love the one of the boys together. The look on Nikolas’ eyes melts me!

As you can imagine I’ve been taking many pictures of our little guy changing daily. The one with them wearing matching shirts and vests was taken last week. John sleeps pretty much all the time:) As for me, well, I’m enjoying being a mama to John. I know this time will never come back so I’m making the best of it.

I’ve kept busy with a few personal projects as well as some custom work but all in all I’ve been taking it easy – for a few more weeks at least. My parents are here helping us – which has been huge! Not having to think about cooking or cleaning has been the biggest blessing. They too, are loving their time here. We’ll miss them when they go back.

Thanks for following along – I am now sharing my daily photos on Instagram. Are you using it? If so, come say “Hi”!
