Awwww Shucky Ducky!!!!

Today was a day to get shit done.

....and I didn't. LOL!!! I need to study for a big exam I have tomorrow in Statistics. I don't know if I'll do well or not. I'm having issues with the material. I grasp it, but I don't get it, if that makes sense.

Leonardo's birthday is tomorrow. At this time last year I was laying in a hospital bed waiting for baby to come. I went into labor around 1pm on the 6th and gave birth at 12:59am on the 7th. It really didn't seem like 12 hours. It went so fast to me. Probably not to anyone else in the room though.

I remember how magical it was the first time I laid eyes on my baby. He was beautiful. I cried. I was up the whole rest of the night just staring at him. Trying to figure out who he looked like, trying to figure out if I was dreaming. I didn't want to put him down for a second while I was there. I held him in bed with me most of the time I was there because I didn't sleep for the entire 2 days I was in the hospital(it's noisy and weird and people come in and out of the room like every two hours). I was in love, and not like any love I'd ever felt before. This was much greater. I thought my heart might explode.

He's my everything. It's hard to imagine what life was like before I had him and I will never wish to know what it's like again.

I'm excited for the next one. :) (*Please God make it a girl!)

Nothing more this evening. Other than where the hell did all of you go??

I will definitely come visit.
Try to record the birth if you can. The video we took of the birth is my favorite keepsake. I cry everytime I watch it. Take lots of pics. And enjoy every moment! It will be the most memorable day of your life.
