I knew this would happen, but had forgotten just how quickly it would... that one day this little one would go to bed a newborn and wake up a baby. Well, that happened yesterday. I looked at him and realized that he's much more alert, his wrinkly skin is smoothing out, and he was even concentrating and attempted a couple smiles! Every stage is so sweet and flies by, now more than ever with my attention being divided three ways. Here's a movie of him sleeping at two weeks old... yes, I he really is sleeping despite his eyes being opened!
Last night, James went to his first TU game!
And here he is today at three weeks old, his face is always so grumpy!
Here he is with his crazy big sister who always wants to be around him
...and with big brother who loves him so much
He still looks a little bit like a newborn when he's sleeping, but the newborn look is very quickly fading...
I am so thankful for the past three weeks with this sweet boy.
The weeks, months and years seem to be flying by faster as life moves forward and I am reminded of the brevity of life and have been asking the Lord to help me to redeem the time.
Here are ways the Bible describes our life:
Like water spilt on the ground
Like a shadow, it will not stay
Like a swift messenger, a swift ship, or a swooping eagle
Like a mist or vapor from a pot
Like grass, leaving no memory
Few days, like a flower
Like a wind
Like a sigh
Psalm 90:12
"So teach us to number our days, That we may gain a heart of wisdom."

Such precious pictures! Seeing sibling love is such a sweet thing! That was a trippy video. Seemed to be having a happy dream though, I loved the smiles. :) He's a cutie! And thanks for the reminder on time. I have definitely been feeling like time is flying by so fast these days. Good to make the most of every moment.
