Being a mom is the greatest. For me, it is the ultimate experience of being a woman. It’s the fulfillment of what my body was designed for: to birth and care for a baby. To raise this baby to become a child, a teenager, an adult.

At 5 weeks old, it’s amazing how I can already start to get a sense of Walter’s personality. He can’t do much right now, but what I can see about him is so fun to discover! So, what does Walter like?

Yesterday Walter had his one-month check-up at the pediatrician. We were anxious to see how much he weighed, and even took a bet before he hit the scale. I guessed 10 lbs. 9 oz. and Jason guessed 10 lbs. 5 oz. Well, the little man exceeded both our expectations…
