3 weeks old.

I guess my blog has turned into Van's blog but I just can't stop taking and sharing photos of this cute baby boy. I can't believe 3 whole weeks have gone by. Time is flying, I just want to stop it for a while so I can really enjoy every moment.

Sweet Face.

Can't get enough of these tiny feet.

He's so peaceful when he's asleep, I have to check and make sure he's breathing! Love this baby boy.

Growing Boy.

I can't believe it's been two weeks already. Van is growing so fast it's bittersweet, I'm exctied for him to get bigger because he's pretty much the only one getting sleep but I'm also loving how tiny he is. He's so much fun and still just a sweet baby, I hope he stays that way. I still am feeling like I'm just babysitting, is he really mine? It's so crazy.
Things we are loving about him:
*The way he stares at us when he's all content
*He always holds my hand especially when he's sad
*His tiny body I just want to squeeze him all the time
*The sound of his hiccups
*Even though it's sad when he cries he makes the cutest face
*The noise he makes when he's trying to cry while sucking on his binki
*He is always smiling when he is falling asleep, it makes me wonder what he is dreaming about. Oh and he did smile at me the other day with his eyes open, Zack doesn't believe me but he did
*He holds his binki in his mouth with both his hands. I think he's afraid we're going to take it from him
*He scans the pages of the books I read him, it's so cute seeing his eyes look all around
*The way he tucks his legs up under his bumb, his legs are so bowed right now I love it
*How he holds his head up and wrinkles his forehead when we are trying to burp him he looks like a little bird looking for food
*His sweet kisses

I'm sure there are many more things I could put on this list if I wasn't dying of exhaustion, I'm just not thinking straight right now.

One Week.

Thank you so much to Allison for these photos, she is an amazing photographer and captured Van just perfect. These are just a few, my computer is being slow so I'll add more later.
I can't believe how fast time is flying by but he is still the sweetest baby and so much fun.

I feel so LUCKY.

Coming home from the hospital.

Thank you for all your comments. We're doing really good and loving being parents. I think I'm the luckiest person on the planet to have such a cute boy!

*I guess I need to take some pictures without the binki.
