Adjusting

he is here...peyton tucker wilkins was 6 lbs 10 1/2 oz and 20 in long. he has dark hair and long skinny legs like his daddy. he loves to cuddle and is learning to eat. it has been almost 1 week since he was born and we love him even more now than the first time we set eyes on him. he is just so precious. we have been up and down with emotions, which is expected with getting little sleep.
this little boy is teaching us more than he will ever know. God truly has blessed us with a gift and has used it to teach us our self centered ways. everyone warns you that life changes when you have a baby but they don't necessarily tell you how, but i guess you cant really explain the emotions you go through. here is this little creature that can't function without you and you have to set all of your self aside and wait on him hand and foot, trying to figure out what it is that he actually wants. i am thankful for such a loving husband that encourages, serves and loves me through the tears and emotions. chris has been so wonderful with helping me get through this joyous yet rough adventure. he makes an amazing daddy and for that i have grown to love him even more in ways i didn't think possible because i already love him so much.
thank you all for your continued prayers as we run the race before us raising this little boy in the ways of the Lord. you all mean so much to us and we cant wait for peyton to meet you.
