In the end I handed the naming job over to Omar-- well besides the middle name that I had already demanded on! Omar is not a huge fan of giving Malachi his name, but I want to tell our little boy someday that I gave him his dad's name because that is who I hope he is like! We have had Malachi on our name list for a while. It means messenger of God, which is something we can hope for our sweet boy!
So in just under 24 hours he was named!
AND met his big sister!!!!
at first she just looked...
then she started the patting that turned into smacking-- on the head of course...
then she started squeezing and as I started pulling away she got a tighter and tighter grip and grunted letting me know she was NOT letting go without a fight!At this point a scary reality hit for me-- this is my life now! These are my 2 kids and this is what my upcoming days will be like. I cannot say it is not overwhelming but I know I will survive thanks to...
an amazing husband that helps me so much and is so supportive AND...
the BEST mom in the world that is always willing to help and always knows exactly what to do! How lucky am I to have these two?!?!
WISH ME LUCK-- my reality starts tomorrow when I go home!!!
