Stupid Girl.

Before Simon showed up, I remember telling people I couldn't wait for him to be born so that he could start growing up--all my life, I've never been a baby person, I love toddlers and felt like I was just going to have to persevere through this baby stage 'til I got to the good stuff. Last night, as I was breastfeeding Simon and he was taking a little rest on his 'personal pillow', tears started streaming down my face. I suddenly realized how fast those toddler days were coming, where his tiny head would no longer fit perfectly on my chest and when he wouldn't want to spend of all his hours in my arms. It made me want to go back in time and hug {slap} that girl I once was and tell her how very stupid she was--because these are the best times, everything is perfect and I never want this to end.

If you follow me on instagram {@ashleyanielson} then you've already heard and probably gotten your fair share of Simon pictures, but here on the blog I'm going to try and make this more of a chronological record of the whole thing--so here he is, one day old, wide-eyed and loving to look outside at our beautiful view of the sky.
