Baby Boy

Very early on in my pregnancy, way before we could even determine the gender through ultrasound, I had a dream that I was holding and playing with a beautiful baby boy. It was the only baby-related dream I had. I wish I would have had more of them because it was the sweetest and most comforting dream. 

Well, I don't have to dream anymore because HE is here. He is perfect. Husband and I are crazy for him!

Gael Octavio was born at 10:40am on July 29. 2 days before his due date. After over 55 hours of labor. It was the most difficult thing I've ever had to endure. Also- the most rewarding.  I'm so proud of him and feel so very lucky to be his mommy.
