Bubbalu woke up absolutely sobbing at 5 am today. Why? I don't know. Was he too cold? Did he have a bad dream? Was he in pain?
All I could do is hold him and comfort him. It is truly precious to have your child fall asleep in your arms.
Especially one that doesn't cuddle all that often with you because he's too busy exploring his world.

I took Bubbalu to his well-child visit at his new pediatric clinic today. All is well and good.
I LUV going to Pediatric visits. I may be kinda nerdy that way. Or, maybe because I'm a nurse and like to chat with others in the medical field? Who knows.
I'm an information person. I like to know Bubbalu's growth percentages, weight gain, newly accurate acetaminophen dosaging and to have my finnicky questions answered.
I also see it as a way to validate how I'm doing as a mother. "Is my beloved offspring, the object of my continued attention and affection, thriving?"
I found it funny that they wrote directly on the growth graph: Father is 6'4".

He's just like his Papa.
Could it really be that I am THIS blessed?

We are delighted to announce the arrival of a brand new nephew!
Clint and Laura welcomed Levi Matthew (their third boy) on Friday morning weighing in at 9lbs 2oz and measuring 21 inches long.

Who wouldn't LOVE to cuddle that cute little man!? Caleb and Micah were already busy teaching him how to be a boy. They gave him quite a few smooches too, just to make sure that he knew they loved him.
SO adorable.
Congratulations Clint and Laura!!!
