As you can imagine, my life has consisted of feeding, changing, and rocking Jonas to sleep. I have been excited the few times I've gone to the grocery store...alone. All the boys (Jeff, Dallin and Danny) have been a great support! Dallin has really stepped up and taken an active role in tending his little brother. However, I don't really like to leave him with anyone but Jeff, but I'm sure that will change with time. I have had to fight through some anxieties and have learned that babies really are resilient. Still, when I look at his tiny fingers, toes, ears, and facial features, I am reminded of his fragility and the dependence he has on others. I wish I could capture all the tiny moments that make the work of motherhood worth it. Here are just a few random pictures I've taken over the 3 short weeks we've had with our little blessing.
 |
| He loves being outdoors. When he's fussy, we can usually get him to calm down by being outside. |
 |
| Just some fun play time on his blanket...although he doesn't look like he's having that much fun. |
 |
| I love his little facial expressions! |
 |
| Napping is his favorite pastime. |
 |
| Mine too! |
 |
| He's a Sun Devil at heart!! Fear the fork! (I wanted to take a picture of his little hand when he made the Sun Devil hand gesture. He's his mommy's boy!) |
 |
| He was super fussy this morning. I put him in the bouncer and quickly tried to eat my cereal. Unfortunately, some of my cereal spilt as I tried to soothe him. When I pulled out the vacuum to clean up the flakes, he immediately went to sleep! |
 |
| Mommy and Jonas ready for our first day back at church. We only lasted through Sacrament meeting but he did a great job! |
 |
| We've been putting him in his crib for naps. He's still so tiny! |
 |
| I love all the funny little faces he makes after a feeding while trying to wake up! |
