Growing

It is absolutely amazing to me that Elliott is growing so much so fast. Everyone said it would happen. And it has...right before my eyes. I swear sometimes he looks different in the morning then he did when we went to bed the night before. A little more hair, eyes a little more focused. Taller. Fatter. I took him to the pediatrician on Tuesday because he had a little rash that I started to panic about. Nothing to worry about, but I just had to make sure. He weighed 15 pounds 10.7 ounces. He has doubled in size since he was born. And all he eats is my milk. It's truly amazing. I could never have imagined how in awe I would be of him. Every moment is a moment of growth, of learning, of joy and love. For both of us. As much as he will learn from me in his life....I am learning twice as much from him. He is teaching me how to be a mommy, what it means to sacrifice, what happiness and love can really be, and so so much more. I am thankful everyday. I cannot say it enough.
