3+3=6
3 months as a family of 3 + 3 months as a family of 2 = Easton is now 6 months old. This is hard. Everyday it gets harder. I don't know who said it would get easier...but IT DOES NOT!! Its crazy where your mind goes when you have basically 20+ hours in the car to do nothing but think. It breaks my heart to know soon we will have spent more time without Barett than with him since Easton has been born. Today is also a happy day though. Easton is a happy, healthy, and perfect 6 month old!! I'm so glad that because of the love Barett and I had for one another we were blessed with our little miracle, Easton. I'm so thankful Barett got to be a daddy to Easton for the 3 months he did. I'm thankful for that time, even if it was very short. I'm thankful for the times he talked and sang to Easton while Easton was still in my tummy. I'm thankful for the 3 months we had as a family. The day Easton was born was the best day of my life. I had my 2 boys in my life and we were so happy together. It was a heaven on Earth kind of experience and one I wish I could relive over and over again!
Happy half year to Easton! Every month I say the same thing but he seriously is
THE BEST BABY! He has such a cute personality! He can be so sweet with hugs kisses, giggles and smiles and the next minute be a "little stinker" with his hair pulling and his motorboat noises! This month Easton spent his first Easter with his WHOLE family. He went on his first egg hunt, and got his very own bunny! He also went on his first big trip this month traveling to Missouri to see "Jerome" graduate from the Army. This was not a trip we had planned on, but life doesn't always go as planned as we have learned. This was a much needed get away for us though and Easton is quite the little traveler! Seriously SO GOOD! At 6 months old Easton has been to 5 different states (Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Illinois, and Missouri) He is becoming such a busy little guy. He loves rolling all over the floor, sitting up by himself, eating baby food (his favorites are sweet potatoes and bananas), visiting family and friends, playing with his cousins, and going to Church! His daddy would seriously be SO PROUD of who he is becoming. I miss so badly being able to watch Barett and Easton together. I struggle with being ENOUGH for Easton and having to raise him as a single mom. While it's def not the same as having Barett here, I am so extremely grateful for Easton's grandparents, great grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends (who are like family) who will always be there for him and love him! He will always know what an amazing man his daddy was. He will also always know what a Good Good Father he has in Jesus, our rock and comforter, who has carried and is still carrying us through this storm.
