growing up

I guess that says it all...cute little guy gettin' some love from his mommy. How the time has flown...he's only 31/2 months old, but I feel like he's been with us forever and I can't imagine our lives without him now. Phoenix is now taking on the responsibilities of a big baby...sleeping in the crib, learning to fall asleep on his own. His parents are making it; but just barely. I first and biggest challenge thus far has been to let him "cry it out" for 30 minutes...comforting him every 10. He fell asleep after thirty, and last time I checked he's still sleeping.

What a cutie!!! Nita, I love the pictures, this will be great for those of us who don't live close enough to see him often, so we too can watch him grow up.

Beautiful, beautiful Phoenix. He is a gorgeous blend of both of you. He will have a very rich life growing up with the two of you. It will be so interesting to see where life leads him. I know he is very special. Can't wait to see you this sunday!

Anita,

What a gorgeous baby you have!!! And I love his little chin :) You are very blessed. Being a mom is great, isn't it? (Don't contemplate this question in the middle of the night!)
