Life lived as parents

I have a few min before I feed Griffin and thought I'd make my first post since becoming a mom. What do I think about it? I think it is the sweetest gift God has given me behind Jesus himself and Tyler of course. This motherhood thing is def my calling and my dream. Thank you, Father for this gift.
I have enjoyed every sec of it, even the late night feedings because then it's just me and Griffin and I get him all to myself and there's something neat about being up with my son when the rest of the world is sleeping, just us..bonding and enjoying each other.
I feel overjoyed and undeserving of this beautiful baby. I have decided that if the Lord gives us all boys I would be completely satisfied.

Thanks to everyone who has prayed or is praying for us. I could def feel them during labor and delivery. I will try post a description of that adventure soon. It was the worst thing I have ever gone through but at the same time the most incredible thing. I am thankful Griffin and I are safe and sound and healthy. It's very strange that just whalah! you're no longer pregnant anymore! it's such a quick body change! I am enjoying being back to normal though and getting to shave my legs without knowing I'm scrunching Griffin.

Anyhow, we love Griffin so much and we will try not to make this blog "Griffin's Blog" but it may happen anyways, we'll see. :)

haley- i hope i have that same attitude as you about getting up whenever to feed a new baby. any indonesian we meets asks these questions:

1. where are you from?
2. are you married?
3. do you have kids?

when we say "belum" which means "not yet" they have been know to either say "maybe next month, Ibu Amber" or rub my belly and say it at the same time!

Then I say "Oh I am still young, and I also like to sleep alot." They just laugh. They think it is so funny. So I do hope I have your attitude when God does bless us with a kiddo!
