It has been a month now, and time goes by so fast. It feels like yesterday that my water broke and my little boo bear was born. :*) Sometimes I just look at him and tears of joy run down my face and I am overjoyed with my accomplishment in life.
In my last post I mentioned how hard parenthood is. It is hard, but its not necessarily being a parent that is the hard part, its being selfless and putting everything second to your child, that means Jordan's and my relationship too. I miss our relationship. I knew I would. I don't think there is anything wrong with that either. Parenthood is a wonderful journey, Jordan and I are experiencing this together, we just don't have much time to spend with each other, and it is kind of sad, but understandable. I am sure that once we have a schedule with Max and things have settled down a lot more, we will be able to spend more time together. I miss Jordan even though he sleeps next to me every night.
Since Max has been here, I have been trying to get things ready for when I go back to work. With all of this "extra" time that is not really "extra" at all, I have gotten the finishing touches on my wedding dress, pretty much addressed and sent out all the save the date cards except for a couple friends and immediate family who don't necessarily need one, picked out bridesmaid dresses - all that should be done by June 8th - and well, that is pretty much it so.... I still have a lot more. My SIL, Lauren, has agreed to design our wedding invitations!!! I am so excited because they will be "custom" made and very very original. If you are reading this and you need a graphic designer for anything contact her Lauren Covington http://www.etsy.com/shop/charmandfig she has an "etsy" shop and a blog as well http://charmandconfetti.blogspot.com/She is amazing, I'm not biased at all! LOL, but really she is very good at what she does!
In the last month, Max and I have done so many fun things! We went to the beach (which really ended up being not a great idea because I couldn't get in the water and he couldn't be in the sun), he went swimming ... and hated it. This makes me sad because I am a swimmer and I LOVE it! I am sure as he gets older he will learn to love the pool. Here is a picture of Max doing "tummy time" which he hates as well. He is very good at picking his head up and looking around, especially in the wee hours of the night.
Max looked super cute in his swimmin' suit!! I love the matching hat, he was so precious! He
just did not like the water, at all.
