"overall" a good baby

 Jax was a fussy little baby boy. Not going to sugar coat it.

Definitely more rough days then good ones.

Since this is my first baby I really didn't have anything to compare it too, but I felt like all he would do was cry and cry and cry all the time for no reason at all.

I would have anxiety at night knowing that it would start all over the next day. It would be just him and me in the morning... and thats when the saddness would begin and wouldn't really stop until he was asleep.

 I would feel bad when people would want to hold him. No one likes to hold a fussy baby.

BUT, when 2 months came around, I noticed that he was much happier! He started to really smile.

Not an angel child, but noticeably less wailing. Thank the heavens. A sad baby can really wear on a mother in many ways. 2 months might not seem like a long time, but during it felt like forever.

I truly tried to enjoy him even during this time, but I'm not going to lie there were sometimes when "enjoying" was a big stretch of a word.

Now I look forward to the mornings. He is a happy, happy boy. The mornings are for cuddling as long as we want!

When he looks at me and smiles, it makes it all worth it.

I was sad the day he grew out of these overalls

How he loves to be held. Nate has got it down.
