One Month

Our boy Hugo has been in our arms for one month as of yesterday.

I can't believe how fast this month has passed by, yet it also feels like we have always had him with us.

I've always known that I wanted to be a mother, but I had no idea of the pure joy that our boy would bring into our lives.

He makes us laugh, hurts our hearts in the best possible way, makes me cry when I think of the incredible, undeserved blessing that he is, and can make me waste away hours simply staring at him, drinking his cuteness.

Hugo becomes more alert each day, and while I love the softness of him, the way he moulds into my arms, and the beauty of this newborn stage, I am looking forward to when he starts to interact more with us, when he smiles in response to us and can hold eye contact for longer periods of time. 

We love you Hugo, our little man!
