William Bernard is here!


On Thursday, September 19th at 7:58pm, our son William Bernard was born.  

He is the cutest, most precious gift I have ever laid eyes on.  Having a baby is a profound experience, obviously.  But until you go through it, you're never truly prepared for the magnitude of emotion that runs through your soul (at least, I wasn't prepared for it).  I look at him in awe-- I can't believe that I'm his mom. 

I'll be back in a few days to share the birth story.  Right now, I'm transitioning into my new life of baby cuddles, midnight feedings, smelling his sweet baby scent, and watching for every new little expression.  At some point, I'll finally wash the baby puke out of my hair and get it together.  But until then, I'll be kissing those sweet little baby feet and thanking God for this precious miracle in my arms.

    Congratulations and best wishes to you upon the birth of your son. My twins will be 21 in February and I still have so much love and emotion for them. They will always be my babies. I remember bringing them home from the hospital. It was life changing.
    Motherhood is one of life's greatest rewards and blessings.

    Congrats!!! It's a pretty surreal experience, and you're right....you never fully understand it until you experience it yourself. I have an 11 month old boy, and just you wait! It gets better and better everyday!
