I've always said that I wished that I the time to blog, so that I could keep everyone updated on Kane as he continues to grow. I have claimed for the last several months that I just "didn't have the time." Well, I have decided that I should "make the time" this year, and become a blogger!
I can't believe that Kane will be seven months old on Friday. The time has flown by for both Danny and I. Eight months ago Danny and I were living in Philly, PA waiting on our twins to arrive. Our wait ended on June 22, 2009 when they finally arrived after four days of attempting to delay my labor. I was 34 weeks when my boys decided that they couldn't wait any longer. Unfortunately, my time with Kase was very short, and Kane's first few days of life were filled with anxiety. However, God, Danny, our families, and a great medical staff, made life in the NICU as pleasant as it could be.
When Kane was only 10 days old, he along with my mother and myself left the hospital, had a wreck in a cab on the way to the airport, and finally boarded a commercial flight home. I was terrified!! I kept him covered the whole time, and told people on the plane that they couldn't look at or touch him. When we finally landed in Jackson, I could have kissed the ground. All I wanted to do was go meet Danny at my mom's house, and drive home, a place I had not seen in over a month. Only one problem, some of our luggage was in Detroit. Thankfully a few hours later, we headed home, luggage in tow.
So much has changed since those first few days at home with Kane. Though I still worry, my anxiety level has definitely gone down with time. He loves to play and smile and babble on an on. I cant believe that in less than six months he will be a year old!! Although the second half of my pregnancy was less than desirable, and the first few months at home were a little scary, motherhood is the best thing that has ever happened to me. I love being Kane's mother. Seeing his face every afternoon when I go get him from his Nana's is priceless. I melt when he smiles and laughs. Sometimes I catch myself just staring at him, feeling so blessed that he is mine.
