From Instagram: Four weeks old. HOW is that possible?!
It hit me hard yesterday that this sweet baby boy is already four weeks old. I’m not sure how it happened so fast, and even though I hold him 99% of the time, I’m not convinced I soaked up the moments as I juggled our trip to NC, trying to figure out a work routine, etc.
He is just the absolute sweetest baby, and while he’s not necessarily an easy baby (we still haven’t figured out how to get him to sleep anywhere except my arms at night), he offers smiles and snuggles freely, which pretty much makes me forget the hard parts!
What I’m reading: UnEnchanted (An Unfortunate Fairy Tale Book 1) by Chanda Hahn (My reading has taken a nosedive because of the whole newborn sleep schedule. At night, when I usually read the most, I can’t seem to concentrate on the words in front of me or stay awake to read more than a few pages at a time!)
What I’m thinking about:
