Yesterday Toby turned four months! Yes four. Already!
I love walking into his room in the morning because he is often chatting to himself and gets all wriggly and excited when he sees me. It is priceless.
He can get very chatty- loud too. It is fun and adorable now, but I wonder if he'll be a chatterbox when he's older. He's his dad's son I guess haha!
We seem to have reached a good spot. He's napping really well and sleeps through in the nights too. I'm soaking it all in before the next 'phase' starts- Solids? Crawling/ movement? etc.
I'm not much off from my pre-pregnancy weight but I can't help but be thinking about it. Maybe it is because summer is coming and I'm wondering how I'm going to fit into shorts with zippers and buttons! So far I have been embracing elastic clothing with arms open wide- pretty much just wearing my maternity clothing.
I am trying to not be too concerned about it but it is often a thought that lingers! Grrrrrrr.
I have to admit. I think a lot about having a second child. I would love for Toby to have a sibling. I was looking on trademe the other day and I found myself wishing I had a need for a double stroller- you know those cool front and back ones.
I don't necessarily want one right now, but I get nervous about the thought that it could be another rocky road to having another, so I get a quite desperate and panicky. It was worse when I just had Toby, but now it seems to have subsided. I feel okay. I feel like I can wait.
I don't know whether we will be able to have a second child but I'm learning to try and enjoy each day I get with Toby as the days do pass by so quickly.
I've also been thinking a lot about contentment. And how infertility stuff revolves around that constant tension of being hopeful yet being content at the same time. A big mystery I tell 'ya.
Toby is a good good boy. I cannot ask for a better baby and I'm so thankful for him.
Gonna post more pics in a next post.
(A couple weeks ago I tried to go for a walk around the block with him in the baby bjorn... but he fell asleep!)
(This was me trying to take a passport photo of him. But he was a little too excited so I kept getting these funny expressions. We went to the store to do it haha.)
(This was a recent family pic. Look at his rosy cheeks!)
(So I often find him all over the place in his cot. Here's one...)
(You almost always will find him like this for his afternoon nap.)
(This was us at the Rugby World Cup Final party at my friend C's.)
(Just showin' off my All Black cupcakes. They won they won they won!)
