Well, before Toby was born I had all intentions of trying to blog every day to share our experiences of having Toby in our lives. Well I failed! Life has been so hectic with family visiting, surviving having no sleep, and all the while keeping up a house hold and keeping a 13 year old occupied. So here are some things that I can remember over the last two months of having Tobuius Kenneth Jerry Thomas in our lives.
* When we first brought him home from the hospital I don't think we could put him down. It was just too amazing that this little thing came from the two of us.
*Griff stayed the first night in the hospital with us. I can't even begin to explain how much it meant to me to have Tyler and Griffin in the hospital room with me.
*I quickly learned that even though I was exhausted there were moments where I couldn't sleep because I just had to check and make sure he was okay sleeping, not to mention how fascinating it was to just sit and watch him sleep.
*I am learning that love is deeper then I had ever imagined. Not only for my child, but for everyone in my life.
*Mornings are Toby's favorite time. We lay in bed and talk and laugh with each other. Weekends in the morning are my favorite time because Tyler and I are both able to lay in bed and play with Toby between us.
*Watching Griff "walk" across the living room with Toby makes me laugh so hard my sides hurt.
Being a parent truly is something you can't fully understand until you are a parent yourself. It has already been one of the most awarding experiences of my life in the last 3 months. And I can't wait to see what the next days bring.
