The Very Best Valentine's Gift

L is for Love shirt from The Blue Envelope
It was last year on Valentine's Day that I told Drew I was pregnant. I had known for 2 days and was exploding with happiness on the inside, but wanted to wait for the perfect moment to tell him. On Valentine's Day we ventured out in a snow storm to our favorite restaurant, had a nice dinner, came home and got cozy and then I shared the news that would change our lives forever.

It's so crazy to think back on all the things I was wondering back then...

I'm pregnant, now what? Will I have an easy pregnancy? Will we have a son or daughter? Am I going to be a good Mom? Who will our baby look like?
Now a year later instead of holding a positive pregnancy test, I am holding my baby boy. I am so thankful. Finding out about him was the best valentine's present ever!

Here are some things that I L-O-V-E about Aiden at 3 months:
I love how you look when you first wake up in the morning...morning stretches are the best
I love how you stare at me with those big dark eyes
I love the rolls on your thighs and arms
I love how you love hanging upside down
I love your coos
I love when you talk to me
I love your smile
I love the face you make when something surprises you
I love how much you love to splash around in the bath
I love your furrowed brow
I love that when you cry for something it sounds like you are calling for your Mama
I love your little toes
I love your big belly
I love your long fingers
I love the way you light up looking at your Daddy
I love how routine you are
I love looking over at you in the middle of the night and seeing you smile in your sleep
I love how much I miss you when we are apart
I love how you have turned our world upside-down in the best way possible
