Almost there!

The past week has been wonderful. We are settling into a routine and loving every moment of it. Up until this point not sure what I imagined it to be like, but it is better than anything I have ever experienced.
The other afternoon the baby fell asleep on me and quietly I feel into a deep sleep. The feel of his newborn skin against mine, the fresh smell of his scent softly creeping into my nose, the grip of his hand around my finger, all of it transcending me adrift on a cloud. No worries, not a single stress, just he and I floating together somewhere in another dimension. I awoke hours later to find his hand still wrapped around my finger, and his sweet body sprawled out sideways on my chest. It just doesn't get better than that.
For so long Jess and I dreamed about our little one and had no idea that in just a few weeks our hearts would be so fulfilled.
We have visited with Grandparents quite a bit this last week and it is pure joy to watch a different generation and their magical reaction to the baby.
I did not write much this past week mainly because I have been holding my breath and simply praying that Feb 2nd will come and go very quickly. Jess and I are so anxious to be able to fully BREATH!
Thankfully we have wonderful friends who have channeled positive energy across the US. Collectively we are going to make this happen!
Moments ago I heard the baby crying and within minutes he stopped. I must admit Jesse is the "Baby Whisperer." How lucky am I?
More soon-
