2 months.

 here are my littlest man’s 2 month photos (he’s almost 3 months now, can you believe that?!)

be ready to {melt} from cuteness

big brother wanted to join in again this time. i. love. it. 

this past month we’ve seen the most change…so far. full of real smiles and coos. oh my WORD, he is a joy.

also, i could swear he’s teething already (Chase began early at 3 months but his first tooth didn’t pop through until 6 months)! chew, chew, chew. drool, drool, drool

he is a super chill, {peaceful} and happy baby (once i figured out a few things for his sleeping and stuffiness)

 he absolutely {adores} his big brother Chase and thinks he is HILarious. (like you see here, ha! no, but seriously, he does. ;)

{melts. my. heart} Chase thought Shailo was tickling him. so stinkin’ funny and cute!

he prefers to sit upright and look around at his surroundings. and while he really does adore his daddy and big brother, he is {such} a momma’s boy already. loves to be in my arms… and i love him there. he’s just a tad “spoiled” some would say.

Shailo Valour, we absolutely adore you and are so very thankful for you.

(in other news, kind of related to this… i have really struggled lately with our loss of Eisley. missing her being apart of even such things as our monthly photoshoots. i should be photographing 3 of my babies; my 2 month old boy, my 2.5-year-old Chasey-boy, and my 15 month Eisley-girl.it’s hard not to think about the “ifs”, especially when i’m reminded daily. i know it would be a tad bit crazier than it sometimes feels now, but i’d give anything for that. anything. the constant reminder that she’s gone is still really hard for me to grasp, especially some days. anyways, my heart just kind of aches a lot lately. i am so grateful for my boys and their LIFE. so very grateful, beyond words. yet i do still ache so much knowing one of my babies isn’t with me anymore. didn’t want to make a post out of this bit, just i guess asking for your thoughts and prayers for me as i walk through this new place that i am. thanks for stoping by and for caring.)

Shailo’s first monthly photoshoot.

I did a monthly photoshoot for Chasey-Boy with stickers on onesies and this time I wanted to do photos of each month but do things a little different. I decided using paper letters (1/2 price from Hobby Lobby) It’s amazing how quickly little ones grow. I’m in awe of how fast time is flying by and how quickly things are changing. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to do this photoshoot until this week which puts him at 3 weeks so his 1 month and newborn shoot won’t show much change ;)

I believe Shailo, at 3 weeks, is just now reaching Chase’s birth weight of 8lbs 150z. I’m in awe at the fact that his newborn clothes are just now starting to be tight on him! Love it!

Hi, preshy boy!

“Hold baby Lailo, peeease?!”

Chase wanted to join in the photoshoot which sparked the idea to do this every time! We’ll see if he’s willing to every month ;)

{adore}

{my boys}

They’re going to be the best of friends, I just know it.
