Sitting at home watching the very very sad Hope For Haiti and it's breaking my heart. My bunny is comfortably sleeping in his very cozy nursery while I type this out and I can't help but see him in all the little faces appearing on the television screen. We are so lucky and the thought of children, babies and their families missing, alone and in pain just about kills me. There is something else that it's doing though and that is reminding me to be grateful, to love my bunny and remember that it's always more rewarding to give than to receive even when it feels like we need so much. Really? I mean really, Who needs it more? That's all.

A bunny in my arms and this blog on my mind... A long time coming, the blog and the bunny.

My beautiful boy who I lovingly refer to as my very own "chocolate bunny" was born October 25th at 12:17 am. , tiny and perfect, he came in a hurry, with very little notice. He arrived in perfect condition. Our two day hospital stay brought us many great surprises and very little sleep, both of these things are still very true today.

Parenthood was not just a dream but a great passion of mine for as long as I can recall and I am so excited to finally be a mommy! Today our boy is a thriving almost 13 week old ball of energy.

Gorgeous and growing everyday, stronger and brighter and heavier, whoa! I mean HEAVY.

12 weeks old and been trying to stand for the past two weeks, normal? sure doesn't seem very normal not to mention his crazy mimicking skills which have been baffling us for about the same amount of time. Currently he is just about waving on cue, cooing, smiling and giggling, keeping mommy up by deciding that sleeping close is not close enough. Bunny's smiles are so welcomed and so joyful. I'm telling you, there are moments when I'm so tired, feeling crazy and looking a mess and then there he goes with that gorgeous smile and it works every time making everything worth it, reminding me of all the years I've waited for him and how much it means to be holding him, loving him and caring for him everyday in every way.
