Being a mom...

It's only been 24 days since I became a mom and already my world has changed in ways I never thought it could.
I have this little man in my life now who I love more then I can explain. It's not the kind of love I have with my husband it's actually hard to describe. He is actually a part of me. When he hurts, I hurt. When he is happy, I am happy. It's a connection I have never experienced til
now. Things that used to bother me or make me angry just don't matter anymore. Life in a whole is just...better!
Now don't get me wrong, I have my moments where I think to myself, "What were you thinking??? Having a baby means you will never sleep through the night again!" So far this has been a very true statement. I have not slept a full night since Lincoln came into my world. However, I would rather sleep in only 2 hour intervals for the rest of my life then go a day without Lincoln. My relationship with my husband has changed 100%. I always knew I loved John but the day our son was born my love for him grew into something so much more. Not only is he my husband but he is now the father of my child. There is a beautiful life that I carried inside me for 9 long months and John is the man who helped me create it. 

I just wanted to write a short update today about how amazing life is with Lincoln. It's not always the easiest life and I have had quite a few challenges already but this is the life I wanted. I wanted that family life and now I have my family.

I will be sure to update again soon by the time Lincoln reaches 1 month :)
