"...when you smile..."

"...When I see your face, there is not a thing that I would change
 Cause you're amazing, just the way you are
 And when you smile, the whole world stops and stares for awhile
 Cause [my baby boy] you're amazing, just the way you are, hey..."

-Bruno Mars, Just The Way Your Are

Five weeks ago I gave birth to my handsome prince, Elijah Sun and while every moment thus far has been a challenging and eventful one, he has filled my life with so much joy that I do not know how I existed without him before now.  During his nightly/early morning feeding today I got so many smiles from him that my heart melted.  I cannot describe the overwhelming joy I felt and continue to feel every time he smiles at me.  With that said, week 5 with Elijah brings the following:

  1. Less gas and discomfort since being put on to Enfamil fussiness and gas formula
  2. Tons of smiles :)
  3. Increased bird-like cooing
  4. A completely spoiled baby...needs to lay on my chest and be rocked simultaneously to fall asleep
  5. Eli's first, very long, road trip and studio pictures 
Until Next Time,
Smiles & Sunshine
