6 MONTHS!!!

His face knows hes getting his shots!

   Yay my Lil man is getting so big! There are days when I wish my son could hurry up and grow up, when he cant stop crying but then there are days when I'm holding him staring at his innocent Lil eyes and wish that he would never grow up! It's crazy to even think that my Lil boy was 2 months premature and was in the NICU for a month and a half because he needed to learn some things. Driving to the hospital 25 minutes away 3 times a day was soo much but all worth it just to make sure my Lil boy was ok! It all started when one of the days I went in for a normal check up ended up not being a normal checkup and my midwife telling me that I have preaclamsia and a possibility having to deliver Siupeli early or even a C-section. I just cried to my husband and telling him I just want Siupeli to be healthy & it was all my fault. At that time we were living with my mom and Ohh how I LOVE my mother she started crying too and told me everything was going to be ok because we just need to have faith, after that she told me she was going to the Temple. I am so grateful for my mom because without her faith and strong will I don't think I would of been able to be as strong as I was that day! YAY for moms! In the end I delivered My Siupeli naturally on July 31st 2010 at 3:38 pm weighing in at 4 pounds 14 ounces, now hes healthy as a normal 6 month year old!
   I'm SO in love with my son its crazy, before I tied the knot I was always used to going shopping every pay day for me and buying whatever I wanted, but now that I have Siupeli its the opposite. We could be struggling with bills and I'm still driving to the mall to buy him an outfit lol. My hubby tells me to stop because hes too little and will grow out of the clothes but nooo of course I don't listen and still go! I guess I just want my son to have what my parents did to all 8 of my brothers and sisters, they always tried to spoil us!
   So far my Lil handsome is such a crybaby, my little sister said hes too high maintenance because she says if his diapers wet, he freaks out for someone to change it lol but hey for my baby shower all I wanted was diapers and wipers soo we just change my sons diapers like its nothing lol so I guess its not Siupeli's fault?! lol. Our storage closet is only filled with diapers and wipes good to last me for another year hopefully, that's if I don't have another one anytime soon! hehehe
