One month!

 

 

Keegan Joseph-

 

Not quite sure how a whole month has already passed, but it has! You are looking more and more like your handsome daddy every day. We were so excited to get you to smile while taking this pic! You were smiling by week one - I think you like it here. ;)

 

You're growing big and strong. In 3 month clothes by week three and size 1 diapers in the hospital! Daddy and I estimate you're close to 12 lbs now! Goodness! Awesome arm work out for me. ;)

 

You're already coo-ing a little and reacting to our faces which is THE BEST thing in the entire world! Your big brother loves you and is trying to find the best way to show it. Right now he likes to shake your hands or tickle your feet and kiss your head. When you cry he says "Hug! Hug!" and wants to pick you up. So sweet.

 

You love your mama roo and bouncer/rocker and LOVE to be swaddled. You don't love binkies as much as your brother did...but that's about it. You're SO content and easy going. It's wonderful. You make me feel like I'm doing a good job. ;)  

 

Love ya pumpkin,

Mommy

 

The most important person… on earth is a Mother.

 She cannot claim the honor of having built Notre Dame Cathedral.

 She need not.

 She has built something more magnificent than any cathedral –

A dwelling for an immortal soul, the tiny perfection of her baby’s body.

 The angels have not been blessed with such a grace.

They cannot share in God’s creative miracle to bring new souls to heaven.

 Only a human mother can.

 Mothers are closer to God the creator than any other creature.

God joins forces with mothers in performing this act of creation…

 What on God’s good earth is more glorious than this: to be a mother?

-Joseph Cardinal Mindszenty
