in the end of september begining of october - my sister-in-law's, sister, contacted me on facebook about one of her friends looking for someone to watch her new baby - i told her YES YES YES!! and not too long after Kristy contacted me - i had no idea at the time - that i could love a little boy this much - i mean my nephews, yes, i expect that - they have some of my dna - but a family that just a few short months ago - were complete and total strangers - i just wasn't expecting it and i think that some of the best things in life come when you don't expect it at all.
when i was growing up - my dad's best friends wife babysat for us. i can still remember from 10-11 every single day - we had to watch 'as the world turns' and we had to be quiet :) i also remember the third drawer on the right - had chocolate chips in it - and when diane would have to go downstairs to switch around the wash, my little hand was in there for sure! but mostly, there was a lot of love... a lot of hugs and kisses, playing dolls, running around outside - and feeling safe.
so today - little b man - turns five months old... so on his birthday - his momma came to visit him on her lunch! she's such a great mom!! i made him some bibs - and we played, sang and chilled to his favorite cd that his momma brought over to my house.
his grandma got him this little hat - i about fell over in love this morning when his dad dropped him off with it on - can you stand the cuteness!! so i thought - diaper/hat/all white bedding = 100% brilliant beautiful baby (but he really doesn't need anything extra to make him that)
happy 5 month little man! love you so much and i'm so thankful to have you and your amazing family in my life!!
