He steals my heart....

everyday! I still can't believe that Alex is home! Every morning I get him out of his crib and he just giggles when I pick him up. He immediatly snuggles his face into my hair and latches on to my arm. And every morning, he brings tears to my eyes.

I just wanted to say to all of you that are waiting...it WILL happen and your little ones will bring you such joy!

Here's a couple of pics of Alex from today....

Who wouldn't want to snuggle with that cute one. You are very lucky to have him home so young and enjoy this cuddle time. Most boys just love to snuggle with mommy, mine do.

Oh how sweet...I often got teary eyed when Ana would look at me in the morning (we co-sleep) and say "MeeMee" (for Mommy) in a way that melts the heart! He is a cutie for sure..thanks for sharing..
