We left the hospital- just us 3. It was a crazy drive
bringing him home with us. Our little family. We were so happy. That first
night with him was scary. We were so paranoid. Constantly checking to make sure
the blanket want over his face. Or that he was still breathing. We didn’t get
much sleep. That whole next week was absolute heaven for me. Total bliss. Danny
was on paternity leave and had that whole week off. My family left the day after we got home and my mom came back when danny went back to work. I loved having my family here! It was so fun seeing them with Rocky. So cool watching my mom and dad become "grandma and grandpa" to sweet rRocky babe. I also loved paternity leave. mMy favorite time. It was really nice spending all that time with my two boys. I was just on cloud nine. I
literally just stared at him all day. My favorite is when he sleeps on my
chest. Or Danny’s chest (he calls it boy time) so I can stare at him. When
people were over to visit/hold him, I just missed him. I always wanted him in
my arms. I cant even describe the feelings I felt. The amount of love for
Rocky. I am so obsessed. That week, I got no sleep but I have never been
happier. I didn’t want to take naps because I knew I would miss him too much. I
didn’t want to miss any moment. I still don’t. I am soaking up every little newborn
sound. Every smile in his sleep. Every cuddle. He is just the cutest. Danny and
I just look at each other in awe that we made this human. He is truly our little
miracle. That first week I had a few little emotional breakdowns. I cried
because I just love him so much. I cried because I was nervous for him to grow
and get bigger. I cried because I was scared for what this world would do to
such a perfect innocent little thing. I also went to go pick up café rio for
danny for lunch. Danny and Rocky were home together (danny had just got an
epidural shot and couldn’t drive). I cried the whole way there and the whole
way back. I missed him. I felt bad for leaving. I wanted him in my arms. It was
so funny. Yes, I'm that crazy mom. Buuuut I feel like I found my purpose in life. To be his
mom. At Rocky's two weeks we brought him up to Park City for dinner. It was fun to bring him on our favorite adventure. We ate at blind dog. He slept the whole time but mom and dad had a fun little outing.
So all in all, these couple weeks have been perfection. My little
family of three. Home together and just so happy. My heart is so full of love
for these boys in my life. I thank my Heavenly Father all the time for
Danny and for Rocky. As you can tell- I am so obsessed, so happy, and so in
love. I can’t believe we get to have him in our family FORVEVER. I love you
Rocky James. Thanks for joining our family!
