5 months already!


Well today our little Dexter is 5 months old! Wow it has come so fast! Adam and I were reflecting on this day 5 months ago. It was perfection. We were both at home so we didn't have to figure out how to both get to the hospital had we been apart. I pushed for 8 contractions (20 minutes) and our miracle joined our little family. He was/is perfect! He is changing everyday and we love seeing him grow, even though we miss him being our little newborn!
For halloween we dressed him as a tootsie roll! how fitting because he is so sweet!

I thought that seeing as how we celebrate his birth practically everyday that today I would list things that we know about Dexter that make him so perfect and happy and special! We also have to admit that we also love that we are the experts on our little guy!
