When I started this blog, it was to have something to do to keep my sanity over the long extended bed rest and all my hospitalizations. I did not have any idea on what motherhood will be, what my child will look like, how it will be to give birth and so on.
I can still remember every single thing that I did the day before giving birth.
I remember that my husband and I stopped by the gasoline station to eat hotdog before we went to Genesis. That time, I was already thinking that it was the last time that it will just be the two of us.
Come tomorrow, there will be a little one to take care of.
You will see in my past entries the ordeal we went thru when Gavin was born.
One of our friends told me when I was narrating my sleepless nights that I should cherish it because they grow up pretty fast...that I will look back at it with fondness and that I will miss it someday.
That someday is today. At four months, Gavin cannot fit into his newborn clothes anymore.
He has outgrown his co-sleeper. He has learned to control his head upright.
He can now see as far as the end of the room. We have even started him on solids today.
I miss the times that I can carry him with just one arm.
I miss that he can fit into his swaddle and can spend the whole day sleeping in our arms.
I miss our time together, even if I felt that my time revolved around him entirely.
I miss changing diapers 6x a day. I miss his little mittens.
I miss his full head of hair.
I am keeping this blog so I can jot down our memories together.
Time runs by really fast.
If I can just freeze it for a bit sana.
Gavin, please don't grow up yet.
I'd like to have my little baby for a longer stretch <3
