He is a little man already. I sat on 10/30/14 and remembered the moments that I knew I needed to get ready to go to the hospital at 7:20am. I remembered the car ride that felt like a million miles but was only 15 mins to the hospital. Being at the hospital shaking because of the adrenaline. And of course the epidural that I opted for but found out that only about 30% of it actually took. And then the pushing for what seemed like forever and just when I thought I didn't have anymore in me and that I was going to pass out... There he came, they say him on my chest and he was so tranquil, not crying at all, and I was amazed at how big he was and how gorgeous!
It has been one year since all of that but it feels like it was yesterday. I know that is was intense and painful but all of that is a small price to pay for a child.
Oliver is talking and walking. He loves to be outside and absolutely loves his day caregiver Kathy and all the kids there. I am so glad we found her. She loves him as if he were her own son.
We had a great carnival theme party at home for him, and now we are on our way to amas house to celebrate with them.
I can't wait to see what every day brings!
I'm more in love every day!
