(Liam on July 4th)
How is my precious little boy going to be 18 months on Wednesday? Where does the time go? He is growing so fast. So many days I just want to stop time and take it all in.
We have had a lot of fun times already this summer. We bought him his first pool and he absolutely loves it. I’m not surprised! He stays in until his lips are blue. It seems to be a recurring event that after nap time on the weekends its pool time!
We took him to our town parade on July 4th. He loved it! He was so into all the trucks, especially the fire trucks. They handed out flags and he held on to it the whole time flying it around. I can only imagine how much fun we will have next year!
We’ve started talking about having another baby. Right now we are in the midst of moving (hopefully). Two words to describe our situation = Housing Drama. I’m hoping it all works out and we can be in our forever home. Once we are settled we hope to start trying again.
The thought of trying again scares the crap out of me. What if I have another miscarriage? How would I be able to deal with that especially with taking care of a toddler? I know we want another child but that doesn’t take away all the fear I have of getting there. There are so many unknowns and what ifs. I try not to think about them and just enjoy my precious time with Liam right now. I’m grateful every day to have him in my life. To see him laugh, learn new words and grow into a little man makes me smile with happiness.
July 22nd will be 3 years since we lost Nathaniel, our first baby. So much has happened in 3 years. I still miss him but it doesn’t hurt as much. He always will hold a special place in my heart.
I hope you all are enjoying your summer!
Time sure doe fly! He has gotten so big! I hear ya on the housing drama! We just bought a house & are going through the wretched process. And I'm already 19 wks. Hopefully we get in w/enough time to set up babies room.
ReplyDeleteAs for trying again, I completely know how you feel! This journey the 2nd time around was much harder than I imagined. The fear never goes away. But having Liam with you this time will give you even more strength than you knew you had.
Liam is SUPER cute!! Hope you have been doing well too, and definitely true, there is always the fear and worry that comes with trying for the next baby. Glad to hear Liam is active and loves the water, so does E! How did the housing situation go down?
