    Beautiful boy, beautiful photo. I like to imagine you just watching and admiring him as he sleeps.

  8. Teresa says:

    What an excellent pic. He’s beautiful.

    I love the way he already likes to fold his arms over his chest. He is perfection personified.

    Isn’t he sweet? I know all you do is sit around and stare at him. That’s what I would be doing. 🙂

    They do almost seem to glow, don’t they?

    Thanks everyone! And Helene, thanks especially for the swaddling blankets. They are already making our nights more peaceful!

    Susannah, yes, they do! I love the expressions that flit across his face, too. Mostly they’re funny, but every once in a while we see a precursor of what his smile will be. It’s dimpled and completely irresistible.

    The container-content works both ways: your little guru is teaching you well!

    BTW, vis-a-vis today’s post, if that’s not sacred, nothing is.

    (mis-posted in previous thread, but it still applies)

    Indeed, and indeed. The real miracle of birth is that there isn’t only one person born, there are three.

  16. USS Ben says:

    Sacred indeed! Takes my breath away!

    Congratulations, Julie! He’s so precious, I want to reach into the photo and hold him. Though I’m sure he’s already much more grown up since that time! 🙂

    How neat that there is a new one at OC!

  18. julie says:

    Hi, Anna! It’s been awhile – how are you doing?

    Re. the baby, he just had his one month checkup today, and already looks much different. He’s getting all roly poly 🙂
