The Baby Chronicles: Harrison Jeffrey at 7 Months

Happy 7 months to my sweet boy. And what a month it has been. To say it’s been busy is an understatement. And I hate to even go on about being “busy” – we genuinely do not try to be “busy” for some kind of weird status symbol. We try to have plenty of downtime and a routine for our baby but this month was full of challenges. We’ve gotten through with help from family and friends, a bit less sleep than usual, and a lot of patience and grace toward our situation and with each other. The good news is our baby continues to be healthy and strong, and full of wonderful curiosity that brightens our days.  Continue reading

It’s hard to believe we’re celebrating our first Christmas with baby Harrison already!

I wanted to capture and share our favorite photos from this special time – take a look and enjoy! Continue reading

Being home with him is so nice and I’m trying my best to enjoy this special time as much as I can. As you can see from these photos, he has grown and changed a lot!

This onesie is from Cherish and Chris and was the first baby item we got. 🙂 Valerie gave me the gift bag and couldn’t resist letting me know before I opened it that “it’s a onesie. It’s for your baby!” That girl, she kills me. 😉 Continue reading
