Squishy Feet

Hey everyone thanks for all the love and support you have been sending our way. Someday I will get around to personal responses to e-mails as for now……..

Today it has been 8 weeks since we had Owen Trinity Page enter into our world and he has been rocking it ever since. He went on his first hike this week. However our lifestyle has shifted and with it our perception of time and what has higher importance in the moment. Nothing has a sense of urgency anymore because we know we have the rest of our lives to do it. I have healed, recovered and adjusted to my new full time job. The perks I have discovered are I am finally my own boss, I can take family vacations, the payment is far more rewarding than money, I get to enjoy each moment of life with my son and husband, there is so much to smile and laugh about and it is the most important job in the world!!!! Who knew motherhood was the job I had been looking for all these years. Yes, it has been a huge adjustment but we are so happy and grateful to have this precious son who looks up at us with the purest of love and trust. We cannot stop smiling. He just creates this radiant glow of joy that even strangers can’t help but want to partake in, everyone loves a baby.

Tim has adjusted to fatherhood quite well from day one he was taking good care of both of us while I rested and healed and he hasn’t stopped helping with chores and meals. He seems to have multi-tasking with Owen down while I am still a bit slow at that one. Most of all I love watching and hearing him singing to Owen. I also think he is the better cloth diaper changer, he is quite good at wrapping so that it seals and there aren’t so many blow outs.

All in all I think we are getting the hang of this parent thing and of course we are biased and proud of our son….I mean come on he can blow bubbles already……wink, wink. But most of all we are very grateful to have a healthy and happy son. He is so content with the world he wakes up smiling. Loves to check things out and let out coo’s and screams of joy as he tries to use his voice. He only cries when he is hungry or wet or tired. Even then that is cute with his little pout faces. I always heard parents saying they grow so fast and well I can now testify to that. At two months I am amazed at how much he has grown and developed. So I guess I should stop now because I might ramble and ramble and sound a bit like a proud parent or something. Just wanted to do a quick up-date and let people know the full name and see some pictures. Hope you guys are all doing well and find yourself with friends and family for the up and coming holidaze. Much love to you all. Oh and here is a quick poem from my “Notes from the Nursery” journal, love the Page family.
