My little Beckham is now 2 weeks old, and I really can say that I am enjoying it SO much. I truly love the newborn stage. I love their smell, I love how simple their life is, and I love that they completely depend on their mother for their livelihood. I am not overwhelmed yet with having 2 kids. I feel like I can balance the 2 quite easily, but that is also because I have the easiest toddler known to man. I love being a mom, and I love my kids even more. I am so thankful and blessed that I have the opportunity to be a stay at home mom and get to enjoy my kids 24 hours a day. I would not ask for any other life. I just have been really grateful for my life lately, and realize how lucky I am. I have a great husband, 2 healthy children, amazing parents and in laws, and great siblings and sibling in laws. Life is truly good for us!

What a wonderful post! So glad all is going well for you. I am going in on Saturday to be induced. FINALLY! Happy to hear that it's not too bad with two. It makes me nervous.

The first few days we got back home Oscar was such a stinker and I think its because he was so sad he didn't have a constant companion, Kiki, to play with! And he is just as depressed as I am that he can't go outside and just play! The second day home he started saying Kiki all morning long. We will have to call so the two can chat. I can't believe how much I miss Arizona right now and holding baby Beckham! I am so glad we are coming back down on the22nd!
Can't wait!

He is so cute! isn't it amazing how big Berkeley is all the sudden? That always got me. I love how nothing seems to phase you, and I agree. I wouldn't have it any other way, I also feel very lucky. Maybe I'll blog about it someday, maybe not. See you in a few days. Love you.
