new beginnings



Today ended with a really wonderful experience - getting to see and hold brand new Riley Blaine Honan before he was even 24 hours old! I've never held a baby that new before, and it is really amazing to see all of their tiny features perfectly formed and working. I held him for a couple of hours, and he was so squirmy and cute and made me start to want one... but then I came back to reality and remembered that the time just isn't right for us. Until then I'll just have to watch my friends' babies grow up :) I think when we finally do get pregnant, our baby is going to be the most spoiled baby on Earth, and I can't wait for that time to come! Watching Erin and Jon, and seeing Erin's mom cuddle little Riley makes me so excited for Chris and I to have that experience, and to have our families be a part of the joy of bringing a new life into the world. Congratulations, Erin and Jon!

  1. I'm so glad you got to meet little Riley so soon after he was born. He is so sweet, Jon and I truly feel blessed to have him in our lives. I know that when the time is right for you, it will be so special. There is nothing like bringing a child into this world. It is the most fulfilling and rewarding feeling. I can't wait to see meet your child someday!
