This is home

We have been home almost a week. We have had sooo many friends and family coming to meet little man. It has been fun to show him off. We are still settling in and the true test is when it all slows down. I am so sad Jeff is going back to work tom. and that will be a reality check for me. I am not ready for him to go back, but honestly I never will be. He is excited to go back and I hope he enjoys it.
I don't know when I became so sappy haha. I find myself crying more than I should. Sometimes I cry when I look at him because I love him so much! Sometimes (especially in the nursery) I cry because he is here. I have dreamed about having him for years and sometimes it hits me, he is here, my dream came true. Its an indescribable feeling. I have to tell myself constantly that I am a mom, don't know if that will ever sink in.
I know every parent thinks they have the cutest kid in the world but for me its true :) hehe. Yesterday he had pictures done by my sweet friend Shauna. He was awake the whole time and making crazy faces at the camera. Im sure some of them are hilarious. He also started officially smiling yesterday. It was perfect because I and Daddy each got a good one. So now you know I spend all of his waking hours trying to get more of those and he greeted me with one this morning :).
He is still an amazing baby, he fights sleep so that takes some work, and on occasion he gets an upset tummy. The past two nights he has given me four hour stretches between feeds, but they were well deserved after the fight to get to sleep haha.
My nephews are by far the sweetest things with Ty you will ever see, it is unbelievable and indescribable if you haven't seen it. You will never see a 5yr old sit still for hours just to be able to hold him or feed him. It is so adorable.
Sometimes it overwhelms me how much my kid is already loved ;). He has so many friends and family that love him and its amazing. I'll post a pic of our church sign.
It doesn't get any better than this.
Love
Hard to see but it says "Welcome Home Jeff, Michelle and Ty. We love you!"
