I find myself longing to be more poetic or elegant in my posts. I read other blogs and find that their speech is sophisticated while mine is simplistic.
However, I remember that I am not here to show my artistic writing skills. My intent was to allow friends and family a glimpse into our everyday life. So, welcome to our life. :)
Part of me says, "I can't believe four weeks has gone by." Another part says, "It's only been four weeks?" The former because I can't believe that our little boy is growing so quickly. The latter because I feel like he's been with us for such a long time. He fits right in with our family. :)
Recently a friend asked, "What do you do all day? Do you get bored?" The honest truth is yes, but it's not bad to be bored. It has allowed me to rest and recover.
Throughout our days together, Timothy does the typical baby things like eating and sleeping.
When he's awake, he likes to look at the fans and picture frames. He enjoys his car mobile and reading an animal pop-up book. His favorite pop-up animal is the lion. :) I know this cause it's the only animal he keeps his eyes on. He's just started warming up to the swing.
What am I doing? During the morning feeding, I get my fix of the Today Show. I really enjoyed when the Olympics were on, and I was able to catch up on the previous day's happenings and winnings. Even this morning, I was able to catch up on the Oscars (which I wasn't able to finish due to the need for sleep!). I may have time during the day to get cleaning done and even take a shower. :) Who ever knew that making time to take a shower would have to be such a conscious effort? One of my favorite past times is reading. Since being out of school and apart of a book club, I'm finally reading "adult" books verses children's literature. Currently, I am reading "Shanghai Girls."

It's quite a tragic story, but I'm hoping for happier ending.
Eric does a great job supporting us at work and here on the home-front. In addition to his work at Moody Radio, he's just finished a project with Josh Dugue. He's, also, working with another friend on multiple compositions. It's been a joy to see him work on music! It's where his heart beats.
I cannot say enjoy how much I appreciate his encouragement and care in this new phase of life. He's a continually loving husband and now a loving father. It's a beautiful thing to watch the man you love love your child!
We look forward to today and the days to come. :)
