Easton Melts Hearts

A whole month later, I'm finally getting around to posting about Easton's birth. No one is surprised. Anyways, it still leaves me speechless when I think about it, really. Watching a baby be born is one of the most amazing things ever. I felt so honored for Mikayla to ask me to be there when Easton was born and it has given us one more thing to bond our relationship. Let me tell you... We may not be real sisters but we have gone through a lot together. Easton's birth was the most amazing and precious experiences. Just watching him take his first breath and hearing his first little whimper of a cry....oh my word, I was instantly crying the happiest tears ever. It really just steals your heart to see this amazing creation of a baby, looking at him and thinking 'he is literally only minutes old, a true beginning'. *I would like to add that, despite everyone's worry and concern and pretty much sure feelings, I did NOT pass out or even get dizzy during this. I'm a bit of a weakling and a fainter. Oh well.* Of course, I'm now going to post a million pictures of my little E- Man. 

After the little stinker was born, I went to pick up some real food for his mommy and then couldn't wait to get to snuggle him for the first time. I really was so glad she was hungry, because it gave me the chance to do some major snuggling! 

I could not stop looking at him for the longest time. After watching him be born, I was just so amazed by him. His tiny little not-even-a-real-cry. The little crease above his nose. His tiny little hands. Amazing.

 Really, though. Just the most handsome little man ever.

 Some serious snuggling going on in that baby swing.

 We stayed the night Thanksgiving Eve and on Thanksgiving morning I stole the little stinker while his mommy took a shower. He was wide awake and I could not get enough. I brought him and laid him down in the blankets on the bed and he was soon falling back asleep. Kaylen and I just sat, watching him snooze and make silly baby faces in his sleep.

 THE MOST HEARTWARMING, HEART-MELTING MOMENT EVER. Come on girls. You know what I'm talking about. Seeing the love of your life hold a baby and actually enjoy it will pull on every heart string you have. *SIGH*

After Turkey Day dinner, we rocked foreverrrrrrrr.

Seriously though, I'm so thankful his mommy loves me because the whole time I was there I was a complete baby hog. Snuggling machine.
