8 MONTHS OLD TODAY!!!!!

HAPPY 8 MONTHS OLD TODAY BIG BOY!! YOU WERE BORN EXACTLY AT 2:03PM THIS AFTERNOON WITH YOUR DADDY AND GMA DOT IN THE ROOM ANXIOUSLY WAITING YOUR ARRIVAL. WHEN YOU WERE DELIVERED YOU WERE THE MOST HANDSOME BOY EVER.YOUR SUCH A JOY TO HAVE!!! YOU WERE A BIG BOY. YOU WEIGHED IN AT 8LBS AND 6OZ, AND YOU WERE 20.5 INCH LONG. I CAN'T EVEN SAY HOW MUCH YOU WEIGH NOW, ALTHOUGH I HAVE THIS STRANGE IDEA THAT YOU HAVE TRIPLED YOUR BIRTH WEIGHT, WHICH IS JUST FINE WITH ME. I WILL KEEP YOU AND LOVE ON YOU AND SQUEEZE YOU HOWEVER YOU WANT TO BE. YOU UNDENIABLY LIGHT UP THE ROOM WITH YOUR GORGEOUS BROWN EYES AND BIG SMILES, AND YOUR INFECTIOUS GIGGLES. I LOVE THE FACT THAT YOU SMILE AND GIGGLE ALONG WITH ME WHEN WERE PLAYING TOGETHER AND MOMMY HAS TO MAKE SOME PRETTY DORKY SOUNDS OR EXPRESSIONS...AND YOU ACT LIKE YOU'VE BEEN COMPLETELY UNDONE BY MY CLEVERNESS. YES YOUR MOM IS ALSO A LITTLE PHOTO-OBSESSED, SO LOCK THE DOOR WHEN YOU BEGIN POTTY-TRAINING. OTHERWISE, ITS SAY CHEESE AND THEN YOU'RE STUCK WITH THAT MEMORY FOR LIFE, AND YOU CAN BET IT WILL SURFACE THE DAY YOU GRADUATE FROM HIGH SCHOOL. WATCHING YOU GROW HAS BEEN THE DELIGHT OF MY LIFE. I LOOK AT YOU AND WONDER WHAT DREAMS YOU WILL DREAM, WHAT MOUNTAINS YOU WILL CLIMB, WHAT JOYS YOU WILL HAVE. I KNOW THERE WILL BE TEARS AND STRUGGLES AS WELL, BUT MY PRAYER IS THAT YOU WILL GROW INTO THE MAN YOU ARE MEANT TO BE. ME AND YOUR DADDY LOOVE YOU VERY MUCH AND LOOK FORWARD TO EVERY DAY WITH YOU. FOREVER!
