the middle

 i was rocking my "little" 16 month old baby tonight.
tomorrow we get to meet the newest member of our family
and i couldn't be more ecstatic
however tonight, for one last night 
mac is the baby.

 i'm crazy in love with this little man!



he has so much personality contained in such a tiny person its sorta miraculous! 
he has the deepest little belly laugh
and the sweetest smile
his eyelashes go on forever
and just like his big brother he can have an entire conversation 
using just his eyebrows.


 i just LOVE him!
 and i'm a litte sad that he doesn't get to be the baby for a bit longer
because he's really good at it,
but like it or not
he has to grow up a little bit tomorrow.
he'll be a big brother after all!
and although he's lucky and gets to be both a big brother and a little brother
he doesn't get to be the baby.
his little world is about to turn upside down.
and i know that him and the littlest little will be besties in no time
still, its gonna be a rough adjustment for my little sidekick.

i hope that he will always know how much i love him 
and that the amount of love is not measured by the amount of time i can devote to him.
my heart just grows exponentially to hold more love for another little person.
with out losing a drop for the others!
one could argue that a moms heart is the strongest thing on the planet,
 the fact that it doesn't explode is a miracle.
i mean think of those crazy's out there that have like.... 4 or more whole kids.
its pretty much mind boggling that they don't just combust right?

so little mac, i love you buddy
but...

buckle up
theres gonna be a new baby in town.

Good luck Mama and Mac-a-doodle! You'll both do great! and as a middle child myself - you must know we are the most rad people in the universe. Ever. XOXO.
