Beautiful Boy

"Each day of our lives we make deposits in the memory banks of our children."

~Charles R. Swindoll, The Strong Family

Gabriel will be 3 months old on Valentine's Day! He recently started sleeping through most of the night and smiles at us constantly. His reflux is far from gone or over, but is getting better and I am planning to begin venturing out with him real soon. Being the control freak that I am, it will take a lot of letting go and just allowing and accepting what will happen. He's in control now, so I have to let go. We've been couped up in the house due to his size, fear of germs, and of course the torturous winter weather we've had this year. But, it's supposed to be a bit warmer this week so first Carmine and I will give it a shot together by heading to the mall or some place like that and then later in the week I'll pick a place for just Gabriel and I to go. He's a little over 9 pounds now, which is quite an accomplishment from the 4 pounds he came home at 3 months ago. I'm so proud of him...already.

My son still amazes me every time I look at him, he's beautiful, he's perfect, and he's mine!
