If you follow me on Instagram, then you’ve seen plenty of feet and outfit shots of baby Rhys. It’s taken me a little longer to share him with you here on the blog, but here he is, the love of my life.
Our beautiful baby joined us on September 13th at 2:59pm at a whopping 9lb5oz. Wahoo! He is now 5 weeks and a day old. How a month has already flown by I don’t know. It really is true what everyone says about time moving so fast when you have a little one. Even the days also move by so fast, which is funny to think considering they mainly consist of snuggles, diaper changes, feedings, and visits from family and friends.
I’m absolutely in love with motherhood and, specifically, this wondrous little guy who made me a mum. He is such an amazing baby – calm, happy, expressive. Every day is filled with new discoveries, like how he smiles when I tickle his cheek, or how he loves to be held against my chest so he can observe the world around him.
The word love just isn’t enough to describe how I feel for him. When he looks up at me and I gaze into his deep blue eyes, the rest of the world falls away. His little facial expressions and murmurs fill me with an immense joy I can’t even fathom, and every time I look at him my heart bursts with a love that rivals that of the greatest love stories of all history.
I truly am the luckiest person in the world to have him in my life.
