So much has happened in those 11 months. So much I've learned.

-Zippers are better than snaps
-However, zippers don't work well with feeding tube extensions
-Poop is everything
-I can live for weeks on less than 2 hours of sleep/night if I have to.
-I really like it when I don't have to.
-Always cover a baby boy up when you change his diaper
-Nothing is cuter than a baby in a hat
-Nothing draws more attention than having a baby in public and not wanting any attention
-I can love more than I could ever imagine
-My marriage is both stronger and weaker than I ever could have imagined
-Watching my child watch ANYTHING is the most interesting thing I've ever seen
-I would do anything, give up anything, yell at anyone if it will help Robbie.
-I can love more than I could ever imagine.
-I can hear Robbie wake up before even he knows it's happened.
-Huggies wipes are superior to pampers.
-Pampers diapers are superior to any other.
-I have more crazy hippy in me than I ever realized.
-Poop happens. a lot.
-God is good and amazing and with us all the time.
-I love him more than anything.

That's my snuggle boy. . .
Congratulations! I agree about the zippers, the wipes, the diapers, and the love. Especially the love.
