So, I had a baby eight weeks ago today!
Yep!!!!
I still can’t believe it!
But then again, every time I look at his sweet face, it’s as if he has always been here.
Our little Graham Finley arrived on August 20th 2014, weighing 9 pounds and 2.5 ounces.
Yes, I said NINE pounds. And, he arrived two weeks early!
My little big baby was also 21 inches long. :)
Here’s a photo from his newborn photo shoot with J. Photography:
This image is really special to me, probably for the obvious reason as it has our new son in it. But also, I love the fact that our wedding image is behind us. It shows the progression of ‘us’ as a family. We traded that bouquet in the wedding photo for a baby. ;)
Speaking of our wedding, it’s been four years ago today. Yes! FOUR years ago today we said I Do.
You know that saying “A baby changes everything” ? Well, it is a common saying because it is SO true. Rick and I are still trying to figure out this whole parenthood thing, but we are loving it. Graham surprises us every day with his many expressions, smiles and coos.
Here’s another image from his newborn session with J. Photography: And here’s an image I took of Graham on Monday: He has gotten so much bigger in eight weeks. He’s 12 pounds now! I absolutely love seeing him grow already, and look forward to so much more with this little boy.
I also adore seeing Rick with Graham. They are best buds already and I think Graham might like Rick more than me like he predicted last year. ;)
Rick, I love you. Happy Anniversary! I look forward to many, many, many more years with you.
Anyway, I know it has been a while since I posted anything on here, but I wanted to introduce you all to Graham. He literally is the best present ever. :)
Until next time,
Bethany
[…] one. One entire year has gone by since we met. It seems totally plausible and yet, odd. You were just born! We just found out about you! How in the world are you ONE? And, then I think back to the long […]
