Oh life with a baby! It teaches you so much about yourself. One thing we did with my little angel since he could eat solids is prepare all his meals. It’s about a 2hr commitment a week and you got food for the entire week. We never bought baby food except to take with us on a trip to Jamaica, and the baby spit it out with a disgusted face, and my husband and I realized we were awesome baby food chefs 😆

My Sunday afternoons, besides going through the end of the weekend blues, can be summarized in cleaning, grocery shopping,  and making baby food. Last night I made 2 batches: lentils with spinach and beef, and potato stew with chicken wings. It’s baby food but trust me you’ll like too. A trip to the grocery store, 2hrs of  your life, and you end up with yummy nutritious food for your little one, all on a dime! Hey did I mention you can freeze it and keep it for over a week? Yes you can 😉✌

We just celebrated my little angel’s first birthday on February 23rd and had a small party on Saturday February 25th. I never thought you can love someone that much! The cheesy saying “I love you so much it hurts” is so true for what I feel for my little angel.  I will protect him with my life in a heart but! Haaaa! The whole week I’ve been revisiting the pictures of him from when he was just a few months old and I can’t believe how fast he’s grown.  I have tears in my eyes looking at the early pictures, and it seems that just last week I were released from the hospital with a little baby, exhausted , scared, and excited for the future. It has been an amazing journey so far. Thinking about how far we’ve came, I was inspired to make a collage  of my little angel’s pictures month to month from now to when he was born. The pictures start really clear but as he’s growing and moving I can’t no longer get a still picture. So I guess that’s the fun in videos.

As great as all this is, the pregnancy was not a walk in the park, but that’s a long story for another time…i’m happy and thankful to God for my little angel ❤ 😉✌
