10 weeks old and more than happy to be on his belly!

10 weeks old and more than happy to be on his belly!
This spot, on Jason’s chest, just over his heart, is Zachary’s spot. It’s where he is the most calm. Where he’s connected and finds peace. After Zachary was resuscitated and his heart started beating again at his birth, and he started to breathe, I saw him for what felt like a few seconds.

While most mommas I know want to have kids close in age so they will have a close relationship, I’m over here loving this whole 9 years apart thing (again). They are just the cutest together and it reminds me so much of when Ty used to rush home from school and stand in front of me with his arms stretched out, anxiously waiting to hold Jude the second he walked through the door. And now it is Jude’s turn. He’s constantly swooping […]
