5 Months Old!!!

Happy 5 Month Birthday!

Wow, hard to believe that this milestone has come and gone.  On April 22nd, (my parents' 46th (?) Wedding Anniversary!) Wesley was 5 months old!  We have had such a crazy ride with Wesley but as I keep saying, we have enjoyed every second.  Even during the middle of the night, screaming his little head off, don't want to go to sleep moments...yes, we have those!  We have certainly had our challenges with health; hopefully we are getting those all out of the way early and building up his little immune system.  I am burning through time off from work but it's funny how some things that used to matter so much before, don't now.  I was such a hoarder when it came to my vacation time and would only use it for true vacations (which meant I would go to work even if I felt horrible).  Now, the second Wesley looks or seems sick, there isn't a question that one of us, if not both of us are staying home to be with him. 

Along with the downs of sickness, we have had a million celebrations!  Every day is that much more special and involves different responsibilities, different routines and differerent priorities.  Yes, life revolves around this wonderful child of ours but if I can admit that, does it make it okay?  Of course we think our baby is the cutest in the world, he has the best smile in town, the best disposition and the smelliest toots in the world, but he is ours!  With every grin, coo or hug, he gains more and more personality and we get more and more attached!  Every day is awesome...no better way to start a day than picking up and hugging a sleepy baby from his crib!  Happy 5 Months, Wesley!!!  Looking forward to tomorrow!
