.baby things: christmas cozies.

SHOP: no.1 | no.2 | no.3 | no.4 | no.5 | no.6 | no.7 | no.8
When my hubby and I first found out we would be expecting a little babe come fall, one of the very first things that got me excited was the thought of having a baby around at Christmas time. Our first Christmas as a family of three! 
And even though he will only be 2 1/2 months old, there's just something so innocent about kids at christmas, with the wonder of it all, that makes me feel like a child as well. It makes me want to participate in all things warm and jolly.
So while I understand that it may be a little early yet, I have already begun stock-piling Jack's cozies,  Christmas edition style. Above are some of my favourites.

.a week of first moments.

a little daddy love
It's hard to believe that our little man was 1 week old yesterday. A week that we've been a family of three, wow! And that we survived.....

See, I won't lie and tell you that it was easy. Because it wasn't. The late nights, constant feedings and attention, and wacky schedule really takes a toll on an already beat-up momma. However, I will tell you that it was one of the most wonderful weeks of our lives. A week full of emotions that I simply can't put into words. A week full of sweet joyous moments, new discoveries, early mornings, late nights, poopy diapers, love, wide smiles, a few tears, lots of cuddles and so much happiness.

And although my blogging has obviously taken a backseat to this amazing little dude, I wanted to share some moments from our first week as a family of three.

.introducing the little guy.

Well, he's finally here! Introducing our wee little man, Jack Henry.
7.4 pounds of pure deliciousness!

Born on October 17th @ 1:16 am, after being 9 days overdue and enduring a long 2 day delivery, both mom and the little man are doing great. A little sleep deprived perhaps, but absolutely great.

He has daddy's chin and mommy's nose, and makes a great little owl face. His hobbies include eating, sleeping and pooping. Mostly in that order. And he loves cuddling at all times. 

He is just awesome and we simply can't get enough.

.baby things: outerwear | girl + boy.

Oh, I can feel it in the air. Winter is coming. Sad, but true.
And I suspect that our little treb will need a warm winter jacket for all our play-dates in the snow [0-4 month olds play in the snow, right?]. Ha. I guess it's pretty apparent that I'll take any old excuse to pick up one of these sweet cozy styles.
Here are my favourites this season.

For the Boy.
