Thomas Michael Shantz came into the world (3 days late) on July 17, 2011. With the sounds of screaming (his), a squishy looking pink person changed my life forever.
I won't go into the details of labour... mostly because I've repressed them already. Let me just say that it was an "all natural" hospital birth. Yes, I'm crazy. Yes, I'd do it again.
The days went by in a blur. How the time flies I don't understand!
Now here we are, almost six months later and we're learning so much together as a family. I'm having the best time with Thom (also known as Tomtom, Tommy T, the "Little Man", Sweet Pea and a bunch of other terms of endearment) we giggle and laugh together and also with Daddy. Sure, we have our moments, when I just want him to be quiet so I can sleep for 10 more minutes, or when he's teething and wakes up screaming every hour all night long... but in general he's a happy, content, adorable baby boy and I love him to bits.
We started "solids" earlier this week, and each time he eats, he seems to enjoy himself more and more! It's the newest part of our adventure and it's hilarious. We are learning and growing together, and I love it!
