So warm, but slippery and covered in some weird goo i will never forget the smell of him or how warm he was on my chest. I was the first person to hold him after he was born and I felt so privileged. In the space of a few minutes I had gone from pregnant to mummy. Mummy to this fragile little bundle who I was even too scared to get dressed in case I should pull his head off. I had never felt such love for anyone as I did for my little baby, Charlie, and suddenly the overwhelming love I also felt for his dad!
It is amazing how much a little 7lb baby can change your life. How much a small baby can bring you and your partner closer together.
He is now 18 months old and can say lots of words and even a few sentences. We can now sit and chat and play all day. He walks miles and miles and just never gets tired. But I wouldn't change him for anything!
It is incredible how fast babies grow. I cannot wait for charlie to have a little brother or sister to play with. He is such an affectionate little boy and I know he will make a great big brother.
So there's my first post! well for this blog anyways :D. Can't wait to write another. If I ever find time.
If you remember nothing remember this- babies grow incredibly quickly, so enjoy every second. We seem to miss the first few months in a blur of night time feeding and sleep deprivation. Next time around I certainly won't be complaining about 3am feeds- cause I know they don't last forever.
