At Home with Edward

It’s been a little over 3 weeks and I feel like I’m getting into somewhat of a new normal.
Mama got her groove back?! Perhaps.
I don’t want to jinx it, but lets just say the new groove is starting to emerge.
Even though our lives are hectic and busy than ever before, I always take the time in the *few* quiet moments late at night or early in the morning to say small, quick prayers of gratitude. I am so thankful for so many things, but especially this little boy. Thankful my body was able to get pregnant {which is not an easy thing to do}, grow a healthy baby to term and be able to care for this new little person! Bodies are amazing.
Motherhood is not for the weary or faint of heart. It’s hard and I’m exhausted and emotional 104% of the time. But holy hannah, I feel like my heart has grown 17 sizes bigger–>just making more room for all the love in my life.
This little guy is starting to be not so little anymore and it makes me sad, but I’m so glad I have these pictures to remember when he was an itty bitty lil’ nugget! Our photographer, Kate, did a phenomenal job capturing the love, joy and beauty that encompasses our new family of FIVE!
Enjoy! xoxo

Have joy in your home.
Have joy in your children.
Have joy in your husband.
Be grateful for the journey.

Beautiful! I’m glad things are going well for you. I said with my last baby that those first few weeks were all about discovering the “new normal.” Best wishes!
Love the one where he’s got his eyes open and the look on his face says,” OMG who are these people?” He is adorable!

Those pictures are beautiful! I love the first one. Where Eddie’s hand is placed, it’s like he’s saying “Yep, that’s mine.” hehe Beautiful family.
So precious and beautiful!! Babies sure do grow so fast. I had my first baby in early January, and he has already changed so much and had grown big chubby cheeks! 😉 Thanks for sharing your beatiful photos!!
