It took Jason awhile to be ready to have kids. He always wanted them, but is the sort of guy that has to have his ducks in a row before making any life changing decisions. Before he proposed we had to be done with college, he had to have a good, secure job and had to own a home. I was ready for babies pretty much right after the wedding, but he wanted me to finish grad school so I could support myself should anything ever happen to him (waaaaaa). So when he was ready for babies I knew he was really, really ready.
I am glad that we waited, because he is absolutely obsessed with Noah and loves him so much. I am thankful that he is so helpful and hands-on with baby care because it makes my life so much easier. I am glad that my little man will have such a strong role model in his life to teach him how to be a kind, hard-working and loving man and devoted husband and father. The world needs more of those, right?
Best moment of a dad's life :)
Teaching Uncle Jerod how to burp.
Nap time.
Story time.
Two buds hanging out.
Daddy can't get enough of babies! He loves little cousin Isaiah!P.S. Why am I blogging so much, you might ask? WHERE oh WHERE do I find the time? Well Noah has turned into a little screamer each and every night, so each and every morning I have no energy left for anything else but sitting on the internet while my little prince sleeps peacefully away on my chest. Good for my blog, bad for my house! Love my precious baby, though!
Awww, such precious pictures! I've read a lot (mostly on Babycenter, lol) about single moms and also married mamas with not-so-supportive husbands. Aren't we so blessed to have these terrific men? Must be the RA backgrounds....haha. But I'm also so glad that Joel is so hands-on and always willing to give me a break, even if he's been at work all day. Some days he'll come home, and I'll literally hand him Aaron right away- and he doesn't mind! Even helps with dinner lately!
ReplyDeleteTo see Jason with Noah there is no doubt that he is in love with your precious son.
ReplyDeleteWhen I came to visit (long overdue btw), I was reminded how wonderful Jason is. He is so genuine and kind and makes you feel that what you have to say is important!
Love you guys -- and I am again love overdue for a visit. Please don't think it is because I don't care. I am honestly just trying to stay afloat.
Keep blogging -- I LOVE that I can read what is going on in your life every week or so -- it makes me feel connected even though in reality I am fairly disconnected.
Love you guys ...
