His little eye contact melts my heart!
One month of life with our tiny monster and I still can't get over how much I love him!
Not everyone likes the term "rainbow baby." Even I go back and forth on it. To call him a rainbow implies that our losses were storms. But even the darkest of days are beautiful in their own right. This sweet little rainbow gave me hope that there were brighter days ahead. Having him here has lit up my life in a way I didn't know was possible. Happy due date, tiny baby. We're so grateful we didn't have to wait another day for you to join us.
I keep looking at pictures from like yesterday and already feel like I can't post them because Hudson looks so different. I can't wait to watch him grow, but I wish time would slow down a little!
Hudson's first 4th of July!! We spent our morning hanging out as a family, then went for a two hour drive just to get out of the house. Occasionally I'd look in the backseat and just be amazed that he's still real. I don't think I'll ever get over it! Brandon's face in the first picture says it all.
My mommy heart has never been so full. Thanks to @shauniesullivan for capturing Hudson's first week of life!
This little buddy is already one week old!! His birth story is now on the blog!
I have tried to rewrite this caption multiple times, but no words seem to be able to properly express the emotions I'm feelings. Things change between spouses when you have a baby. Any magic or mystery there was left is all out the window once your husband watches you deliver a baby. Each time we've had a baby, Brandon has shown me more love and care than I've thought possible, and it is in those times that I find our marriage has more magic than ever. This pregnancy was different, because it ended with a living child. And just when I thought I couldn't love Brandon anymore, he went and proved me wrong. Watching these two get to know each other has made my heart explode a million times over, and seeing them look at each other like this every day brings tears to my eyes. I have always known Brandon would be the best dad, but he proved it within the first two minutes of meeting Hudson. Watching them together has been the highlight of my life.
Hudson Jack Robbins was born at 2:09 pm on June 19th, weighing 5 pounds 2 ounces and measuring a short 17.5 inches long. Delivery didn't go at all as planned, but he is here and healthy, and we have never been happier!
Today is the very best day of my whole entire life.
Tomorrow our family becomes a little more complete.
This guy. To people who don't know, they might assume that Father's Day is not a day to celebrate him, but this is his third Father's Day. It's not easy to be a parent to a child that is not here with us, but Brandon is the best dad to all of our babies. Every day he impresses me with his strength, and continual thoughts of Carter and little bean. I can't wait to watch him raise Hudson and be the ultimate best dad that he already is. Love you, B!!
One week until this little dude makes his debut outside my belly!! Seven days is such a long time!!!!
Some of our favorite maternity pictures are up on the vlog!! freckleeyefancy.com @sugarrush_jena is THE BEST!
This week has been so hard. With less than two weeks left, I am terrified of losing him. We got our maternity pictures back, though. This rainbow is not photoshopped on, nor was it taken intentionally. Sometimes life has a way of reassuring you when you need it most. Ps I can't wait to share the rest of these pictures with you because @sugarrush_jena is AMAZING!
How I feel about only having NINETEEN DAYS left until our boy gets here. Ps this picture was taken by a three year old. @jennikarae can I hire him to be my full time photographer?
