Happy Birthday, Theodore Edmund.

Happy Birthday, Theo!

As many of you know (thanks to those who called with birthday wishes), yesterday was Theo's six month birthday. To me, it feels like a huge milestone. Somehow it signifies that I possess some degree of competency at taking care of an infant, which, throughout the last six months, I have doubted frequently.

And it really does seem like yesterday that we were standing in my room at South Shore Hospital, tearfully packing Theo into his infant car seat* to bring him home (tearfully because I was afraid to leave the hospital since they don't let you bring the nurses home with you).

But here we are today -- big (someone called him "such a fatty" yesterday), beautiful Theo and slightly less nervous Mom.

Happy six months, Theo! We're so glad you're here!

*Theo's big-boy car seat is being delivered Monday! He really is all grown up.

  1. What a beautiful boy!! Grandma and Grandpa love you very much. Can't believe you grew out of your first car seat already. Keep up the good work, little man.
