A Collection of FIRSTS

The "FIRSTS" that this family celebrates is the kind that come after we win, like when your dad says "FIRST!" after he eats all of his food before I finish mine.

(Let it be known right here that I am not a picky eater but I am a slooooowwww eater. I can't wait to see what kind of eater you will be!)

So, if you were looking for a collection of meticulously documented firsts of your milestones, you won't find it. That's because I'm so busy talking with you and playing with you that the moments happen and we are wrapped up in the moment and I don't want to walk away and find my phone to take a picture or even pause in the slightest because I'm nose deep in your little baby neck trying to make you laugh over & over again!

To compensate for not jotting down every single first, I've decided to write you this blog. I think a little narration would be nice than just a simple date and time of when you accomplished something.
Your dad and I started your baby book the other day while you played on the floor with your brand new Christmas toys. You can look through that in addition to this...please excuse any craziness in that book...your dad and I seem to think you'll have one heck of a sense of humor when you get older! :)

While I don't have your very first smile or laugh...(it's hard to distinguish when your smiles were full of purpose or you were passing gas) and my mom swears that you were chuckling at her while waiting for your jaundice check up only 3 days alive...I have plenty of Rachel footage! Enjoy!
