Such a sweet boy!

Landon is getting so long already!!! He is my handsome little guy!
Im still looking tired...but not as bad as I did before. I love how he has his arm around me in this picture!
He wanted me to pick him up here....he wasn't the happiest in this picture.

I can't tell you how in love I am with my little Lander man! What a cute, sweet, precious little boy! Crazy to think that he is already 2 1/2 weeks old and I'm guessing over 10 lbs. by now. Daniel and I love him so much and I think the nights are gradually becoming a little bit easier than they were. He still wants to wake up when Im getting tired and am ready to go to sleep but it doesnt seem to take me as long to get him back to sleep like it was before. I realize I have to enjoy my precious moments with him now because before long they will be numbered and he wont want his mommy 24/7 anymore.
Daniel and I are still waiting for his umbilical cord to come off. It recently has become a little bit scary because last night it became loosened more, but I can tell it is still not ready. I can still see a slimy part of the cord underneath what has dried up. Before Landon was born that was one of those things that I was not looking forward to....the waiting time for the umbilical cord to fall off. It seems a little bit scary to me and I have been pretty careful not to fluster with it. Other than that, that seems to be the only thing that hasn't healed. His pokes from the hospital have healed and his bad bruise that was on his foot is gone but that umbilical cord just does not want to come off! So we continue to wait.
After I woke up this morning I had to set Landon down for a little while because I was so hungry. When I went to get off the couch to set him in his basket he decided he would pass a lot of gas. It was so cute and made me smile because when he did this he pushed and stuck his tongue out, just slightly, between his little lips. I had only enough time to hurry up and get something to eat before he woke up and wanted me back.
I recently also learned that I have lost about 30 lbs.! I am still not back to where I started or want to be, but I finally seem to be getting my body back and it is definetly a lot easier to get around the house...well, anywhere for that matter. Yesterday, I was able to go outside and pull weeds for the first time in a while. When I was pregnant the extra weight weighing down on me was so bad that if I pushed myself to pull weeds I not only wouldnt get as much as I wanted pulled but I would feel horrible for the rest of the day. It felt so good pulling those weeds up from the yard yesterday! I think I am starting to get my old self back...not completely yet...but it seems like I am gradually getting there.
Landon is worth every second. He is my little boy that I dreamed and waited for for so long. He is finally here!
