mini getaway.

Chris and I are celebrating our 1st wedding anniversary a couple days early! We are (me..) being brave and leaving sweet Aiden with his Moppy and Poppy and two aunts! I am SOO looking forward to the time away with my sweet husband! We are heading to a Cardinals game tonight which seems fitting since our wedding was baseball themed, staying in a great hotel, and then spending the day just hanging out tomorrow before returning to the babe!

I am kinda feeling guilty for being so excited for time away with hubby minus the baby. I thought I would struggle more with it. Chris made a good point a couple weeks ago though. We've only been married for a year. As much as I wouldn't change it for the world we got pregnant so quickly that we lost some of that time as newlyweds. So now that I am not lugging around a watermelon belly we can take advantage of awesome family that will love on Aiden while we have time together. Don't get me wrong I am going misssss my boy but he'll be in capable, loving hands!

I feel like a giddy little school girl looking forward to a hot date! :)

Side note:: My sweet boy is two months old as of yesterday! Goodness, how did that happen! More to come on that as well!

Pictures to come!

Be a blessing to someone today!

i am in love.

My, oh my! How times have changed! It's been over 2 months since I've been on here! Sorry for the delay, although I don't know that you noticed I was gone! ;)

I am indeed a Momma to the sweetest little boy there is! Aiden Christopher Wescoat graced us with his presence 16 days early on July 27, 2012. I promise to write a birth story out asap! I am in love with son.

So peaceful
So tiny
So precious
 Being a Momma has been amazing! I spent 5 weeks at home with him before heading back to work. (Heading back to work is a whole different blog post waiting to happen - I am blessed!) The first couple weeks were tough on me as I was figuring out caring for a sweet boy that didn't want to eat, couldn't keep it down, and was losing to much weight. After a few weeks of regular weight checks, switching up feeding, and lots of tears we got him figured out. ;) I am in love with being a momma.

Aiden is blessed to have an amazing Daddy. Sweet hubby has been the greatest! I have always known he would be a good dad and he is living up to that plus so much more! He is not only a great daddy but a great husband. And he's had almost a year to get that figured out, we're celebrating our first anniversary in 5 days! I am in love with my husband.

As much as I love this picture, I wish I had at least one other picture of us together at our wedding...

I have said it so many times and I hope you believe me when I say I truly mean "I am blessed!" God has taken care of our little family in so many wonderful ways over the past couple of months. He's blessed me with a wonderful support system to lean on when times get tough and to celebrate the happy moments. I am in love with my Lord and Savior!

Be a blessing!
