At Last


Jovi is already almost 7 weeks old! I can hardly believe how fast the time has flown by. The last 4 weeks of pregnancy seemed to drag on FOREVER!! At last, my bundle of joy was born and time has never gone faster. At last, I have a waist line...albeit still carrying around a remaining 7-8 pounds. At last, my wedding ring slides back on my finger. At last, my cankles have disappeared. At last, I can sleep on my stomach. At last, my Jovi is here. Jovi has already accumulated a plethora of nicknames: Jo Jo, JJ, Jo, Jovilicous (my favorite), J-balls (I don't know, ask Daddy), Tutti Fruiti, Punkin, Baby Spook... I believe she favors her daddy in looks and her aunts say they can see a bit of mommy in her too. A card from grandma Marcia says it well "A little You Guys". Grandma Sue thinks she'll be a daddy's girl....I tend to agree. Jovi loves when daddy smacks his lips at her....when I try the same strategy to elicit that beautiful smile, all I get is a face that reads, "What is this crazy woman trying to do? Just feed me lady." Sometimes I look at her little face and think, "That belongs to me? I'm responsible for this baby!!?" It's still seems so unreal that I am a mother. Every time I walk up to this Jovilicious Baby and her face lights up with a grin, the sweetest smile, it makes my day and my life.
At last...

I can finally leave comments! Jovi has the cutest cheeks ever! I am so excited to meet her- can't believe I haven't yet. It looks like early January might be good for us. We're going to freeze! My poor southern boy won't know what hit him. I don't even know if they sell winter gear heavy enough for a Nebraska winter in Georgia!
Kiss her cheeks for me. Love you!
