The Valedictorian of the Nursery



Wyatt is such a great eater. Honestly, if he didn't know how to "latch on" properly I don't think I would have made it this far in the breastfeeding department. Props to those who stick through it even during the rough times because in the hospital I found myself saying, "Is it time again? It can't be. Can't he go just a few more minutes?" I really have no room to complain though. He is a champ! (Must come from my husband and his mad boxing skillz). He knew how to do it from the very first time. The lactation consultant called him the "Valedictorian of the Nursery." Way to make your mom proud, Wyatt!
This was my attire in the hospital. Whenever I would hear a knock on the door I would cross my fingers that it was a nurse because someone was going to get a peep show even if they didn't ask for it.

This brings back the best memories. It SO IS worth the wait!!! And I LOVE that they labeled him the "valedictorian". Perfect for you.

Love the attire Kate. That was totally me with my first too. My poor dad came to visit and got more than he bargained for in the middle of my living room! I got way better at keeping it on the down low with my second, but then the twins came and there was no shame.

Wyatt is adorable. I LOVE his fuzzy head!

I love his cute little smile in the first picture. So sweet. He looks great, and you look fantastic. Clothes are overrated anyway. :)

Yes, I too flashed many a visitor in the hospital. That skin to skin time is so special though and you are constantly feeding anyway so what is the point of covering up?? Kate, he is beautiful. LOVE his blond hair!! Can't wait to see him!
