This photo was actually taken a few weeks ago. It is crazy how much he has already changed since this picture. So before I feel like things are changing too fast, here is a list of a few of my favorite things about a newborn…especially mine.
- the smell…has anyone turned that into a scented candle yet?!
- the way they put their hands in tight fists underneath their chin when they first start eating
- their hungry cry…although a bit too urgent (I don’t stress as much the second time around)
- when they poop…at this stage, everything is cute
- rooting
- the first real bath, when you can tell they just love it
- when they are sleeping, there is nothing sweeter than a sleeping baby






























He is so cute! I love that hair and all his cute chubby-ness!!
Ahhhhh – I love it! I think newborn is my favorite stage of all. I like when they’re still all bendy and fold their legs up to their chest.
He’s such a doll – I love his little chubs!
How precious is he?! Soak up these newborn moments…they fly by all to quickly. My newborn is 10 months.
Oh my, he’s cute. I haven’t seen him for a few weeks. I love the rooting and the funny faces they make when they sleep.
Oh, you’re making me baby hungry. He is just so very cute. I love all the funny noises they make. I love the look on your face, total joy and love. So sweet.
They are so sweet and all those little nuances pass by so quickly. It’s good you are jotting them down, you’ll be glad you did. He is the cutest little guy. I love that tummy!
My husband loves a newborn smell too. He says each of our girls had a different smell, and he can still remember them. I also love the sleeping part. They are just so innocent and precious! =)
How ’bout when they look at you with that look (like in the picture). He knows you are his mom. So cute!!
I love how you two are looking at each other! So beautiful.
sweet sweet sweet! make’s me cry…I am such a blubber head. I love it all to. Those sweet moments during the hazy first three months of eat poop sleep
I love how he is beginning to really watch and respond. So cute. My favorite baby stage is 1 year to 18 months. Love that baby age!
Ahhhh! I love newborn stage. It’s making me baby hungry!!
So cute, your baby boy.
He’s absolutely perfect… this stage is so wonderful! *Ü*
He is so very cute! I love that newborn smell too, what a great idea to turn it into a candle
You’re right everything is cute…but the poop…it’s especially cute when it’s dripping through his favorite Aunt’s fingers…EEEEEEewwwwwwww!
Could you be more in love?
So sweet! How wonderful to remember those small little things.
I agree with the sleeping. Soooo sweet. I just wished it happened in longer stretches at night with those newborns. Your little guy is beautiful. Love all that hair!
I love it too, if only it lasted a little longer! He is darling!
I am so excited for you. How fun to have a baby boy. Enjoy it while he is still so little.
kami is making mindi a little baby hungry.
mindi didn’t think it was possible.
oh, that baby!
I love his hair. I am baby hungry. I love the fists and rooting…like a little bird. I could just hold him for hours!
OK, there is nothing I love more than the smell of a newborn baby and all of their little sounds. Holy cow! How could you not be smitten?
So sweet. I love his round little tummy and the way he is looking at you. =)
I love the newborn stage! My little man is 4 months old now and I can not believe how fast it is going! Loving every minute of it! Especially the moments where they look at you with that sweet face…great picture!! Congrats again!
I love all those things too! Very cute picture.
You are spot on! I just love it when my little dude roots! I love to just stick my nose in the back of his neck and sniff him and kiss him to death. Yep, our babies look tons alike…they must have known each other up above
This got me all weepy.
Like I want another baby. I just don’t want it to be MY baby. Can I just borrow yours?
