Less than a week...

Matthew Joseph will be a year in less than a week. I had a c section scheduled for 1/30/2010 because of all the pregnancy problems I had (gestational diabetes, preterm labor, preclampsia) I was doing two non stress tests and an ultrasound on a weekly basis from 30 weeks on.

However my child decided on January 28th at 8:30pm and after a long day of shopping with my grandmother that he wanted to break my water. Hubby was at work and was shocked when he arrived home that I was getting in the shower! Lol!

We arrived at Anna jaques hospital in Newburyport which is about a half an hour from our home at 10:30. My doctors office said I could take my time since the contractions were not very strong and not close together. About 11pm the contractions were regular and about 3 minutes apart but I wasn't dilating or anything. So there went my dream f having a VBAC...

We had an emergency c-section and Matthew Joseph was born at 12:19am on January 29th, 2010 weighing 9lbs 2.6oz and 21 inches long, at 37 weeks. That is NOT a typo.

I can't believe it has been almost a year since my little man was born!

Mama loves you Matthew!

To my son Matthew- almost 1 year

Matthew,

Boy how time has flown this year! It seems like just last week you were this little baby in my arms. Now your a crawling, almost walking, almost toddler with a mind of your own! You have such a personality I have to add! I just can't believe how smart you are, and not even a year old.

But, you need to start talking some real words soon! Mama, or Dada would be nice, first off, instead of calling us "ehhhh" and "eeeee." You've said mum once, but it just didn't stick, you prefered "ehhhh."

I remember when you rolled over two times in a row, and it scared you and you cried, I thought it was cute! Since the day you have been born, you have been stuck to me like glue, and I am not complaining, I absolutly love it! You are such a cuddle bug, not as much anymore unless you are tired or don't feel well. This I am finding is only because you are crawling and so adventurous.

You look up to your big brother, and although he is only 4 and doesn't understand that you don't know how to share yet, and that everything is not "yours" he does his best to play with you and teach you. You'll learn to share with eachother when you get older.

I just can't believe my little baby is almost a year old. in 1 1/2 months you will be a year old, and I think I am going to cry. I can't imagine my life without you, and I love you my cuddlebug!

Love,
Mommy
